摘要
The characteristics of thick (>5mm) HgI2 room temperature gamma-ray detectors having 4 small pixel anodes are investigated. Spectra for the different anodes (overall and for individual interaction depths) are presented. The mu-tau product for electrons was measured to study the variations of electron transport within a single HgI2 crystal. By using the single polarity charge sensing with depth sensing, the mu(e)tau(e) was estimated to vary from similar to9 x 10(4) cm(2)/V to 7 x 10(-3) cm(2)/V. Individual pixels have the ability to produce spectra with resolutions less than 3% at 662 keV. Some effects of electron detrapping and hole transport are also discussed.
