  • 1. School of Material Science and Engineering, Northwestern Polytechnical University, Xi'an (China)

Description

CdZnTe is an excellent material candidate for room-temperature nuclear radiation detectors, and the CdZnTe detectors were used widely in space science, security, safeguards and scientific X-ray and γ-ray imaging and spectroscopic applications. According to the basic working principle of CdZnTe detector, the effects of resistivity and carrier transport properties on the energy resolution have been analyzed. According to the Shockley-Ramo theorem, the Frisch collar, Capture, and Pixels CdZnTe detectors can optimize the weighting potential and improve the energy resolution. The design ideas of CdZnTe detectors were discussed. (authors)
