Download or read book Semiconductors for Room-Temperature Radiation Detector Applications II: Volume 487 written by R. B. James and published by . This book was released on 1997 with total page 696 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Contains papers from a December 1997 symposium on semiconductor radiation detectors for use in the energy range of a few eV to about 5 MeV. Primary emphasis is on developing semiconductor X-ray and gamma- ray detectors and imagers which combine the advantages of room- temperature operation with the excellent energy resolution of cryogenically cooled spectrometers. Papers are arranged in sections on cadmium zinc telluride growth, material properties, detectors, and systems; mercury and lead iodide materials, detectors, and systems; Group IV and III-V materials, detectors, and systems; ZnSe and ZnS materials and detectors; analysis and characteristics of detectors, systems, and applications; and IR materials and detectors.
