Dual-Energy Semiconductor Detector of X-rays and Gamma Radiation

Section: The World of Innovations
Language: Ukrainian
Abstract: Analysis of the major types of ionizing radiation detectors, their advantages and disadvantages are presented. Application of ZnSe-based semiconductor detector in high temperature environment is substantiated. Different forms of ZnSe-based detector samples and double-crystal scheme for registration of X- and gamma rays in a broad energy range were used . Based on the manufactured simulator device, the study sustains the feasibility of the gamma quanta recording by a high-resistance ZnSe-based detector operating in a perpulse mode.
Key words: X-radiation, gamma radiation, semiconductor detector, ZnSe single crystal, charge sensitive amplifier.
