Semiconductor materials and radiation detection.
While Si and Ge have become detection standards for X-ray and gamma-ray spectroscopy in the laboratory, their use for an increasing range of applications is becoming marginalized by one or more of their physical limitations; namely the need for ancillary cooling systems or bulky cryogenics, their modest stopping powers and radiation intolerance. Wide band-gap compounds offer the ability to oper...
متن کاملSemiconductor Detectors in Radiation Medicine:
Semiconductor radiation detectors play an important role in radiation instrumentation. They have many advantages due to their small size, outstanding energy resolution in nuclear spectroscopy, easy pixilation for high spatial resolution and ability of integration with readout electronics. Advancement in microelectronic industry made silicon one of the most popular material for radiation detecto...
متن کاملNew materials for radiation hard semiconductor detectors
We present a review of the current status of research into new semiconductor materials for use as particle tracking detectors in very high radiation environments. This work is carried out within the framework of the CERN RD50 collaboration, which is investigating detector technologies suitable for operation at the proposed Super-LHC facility (SLHC). Tracking detectors operating at the SLHC in t...
متن کاملAdvanced Semiconductor dosimetry in radiation therapy
Modern radiation therapy is very conformal, resulting in a complexity of delivery that leads to many small radiation fields with steep dose gradients, increasing error probability. Quality assurance in delivery of such radiation fields is paramount and requires real time and high spatial resolution dosimetry. Semiconductor radiation detectors due to their small size, ability to operate in passi...
متن کاملGeometrically weighted semiconductor Frisch grid radiation spectrometers
A new detector geometry is described with relatively high gamma ray energy resolution at room temperature. The device uses the geometric weighting effect, the small pixel effect and the Frisch grid effect to produce high gamma ray energy resolution. The design is simple and easy to construct. The device performs as a gamma ray spectrometer without the need for pulse shape rejection or correctio...
