Semiconductor X-Ray Detectors (eBook, PDF)

• Format: PDF

Produktbeschreibung

This book focuses on the history and development of Si(Li) X-Ray Detectors, while providing an up-to-date review of the principles, practical applications, and state of the art of semiconductor x-ray detectors. It describes many of the facets of x-ray detection and measurement using semiconductors, from manufacture to implementation. The initial chapters summarize relevant background physics, materials science, and engineering aspects. Later chapters compare and contrast the manufacture and physical properties of systems and materials currently employed, enabling readers to fully understand the materials and scope for applications.
