gamma camera is an important apparatus in nuclear medicine imaging. its detection part is consists of a scintillation detector with aheavy collimator. substitution of semiconductor detectors instead of scintillator in these cameras has been effectively studied. in this study, it is aimed to introduce a new design of p-n semiconductor detector array for nuclear medicine imaging. a p-n semiconduc...

Objective(s): The energy resolution of a cadmium-zinc-telluride (CZT) solid-state semiconductor detector is about 5%, and is superior to the resolution of the conventional Anger type detector which is 10%. Also, the window width of the high-energy part and of the low-energy part of a photo peak window can be changed separately. In this study, we used a semiconductor detector and examined the ef...

Background: Cobalamin deficiency and peripheral neuropathy (PN) are commonly seen in HIV-infected adults. The level of urine methylmalonic acid (UMMA), a reliable indicator of tissue cobalamin status, was determined in HIV infected subjects with and without PN to establish this association. Methods: One hundred and ninety-eight (198) consenting HIV infected subjects with and without PN were rec...

AbsfractThis paper computes the probabilities of detection and false alarm for a pseudonoise (PN) sequence code lock detector when a strong radio frequency interference (RFI) hits the communications link. A soft-limiter, a hard-limiter, and no limiter at the front-end of the receiver are considered. Both continuous wave (CW) type RFI and pulse type RFI are analyzed. It is shown that a soft-limi...

In the paper, a new physical principle for designing of a new optoelectronic device and its theoretical description are presented. The basic idea of the device consists in providing inside a multilayered semiconductor structure such conditions for photoelectrons that enable sequential avalanche multiplication of electrons and holes inside two depletion slabs created around p-n junctions of a re...
