摘要
The photopeak efficiency, peak to valley ratio and energy resolution of a 3 x 3 x 1 mm(3) CdTe detector were determined experimentally for 13-1333 keV photon energy by using polyester coated radio-isotopes (241)Am, (22)Na, (54)Mn, (57)CO, (60)Co, (109)Cd, (137)Cs and (133)Ba. The data were analyzed by using PX4 from Amptek. The experimental values were fitted to an analytical function of photon energy, and an agreement was observed for the entire range of the studied energies. The results have shown that the CdTe detector has a high performance due to both the improved charge collection efficiency comparable with that of SI GaAs detectors (Vittone et al., 1999), and the low leakage current. Also, CdTe detector is very attractive for field application as it works at room temperature. (C) 2010 Elsevier Ltd. All rights reserved.
