Elsevier Editorial System(tm) for Nuclear Inst. and Methods in Physics Research, a Manuscript Draft Title: Time Walk Correction of Cdte Detectors Using Depth Sensing Technique Time Walk Correction of Cdte Detectors Using Depth Sensing Technique
A digital timing method aiming to minimize the time walk caused by the depth-dependent pulse shape variations in CdTe detectors has been developed. Detector pulses are digitized at the preamplifier stage and a full digital process is carried out to deduce and correct the time walk according to the interaction depth. A time resolution of 6.52 ns FWHM at an energy threshold of 150 keV with a CdTe...
متن کاملSpectroscopy of low energy solar neutrinos using CdTe detectors
The usage of a large amount of CdTe(CdZnTe) semiconductor detectors for solar neutrino spectroscopy in the low energy region is investigated. Several different coincidence signals can be formed on five different isotopes to measure the Be neutrino line at 862 keV in real-time. The most promising one is the usage of Cd resulting in 89 SNU. The presence of Te permits even the real-time detection ...
متن کاملMonolithic scintillator PET detectors with intrinsic depth-of-interaction correction.
We developed positron emission tomography (PET) detectors based on monolithic scintillation crystals and position-sensitive light sensors. Intrinsic depth-of-interaction (DOI) correction is achieved by deriving the entry points of annihilation photons on the front surface of the crystal from the light sensor signals. Here we characterize the next generation of these detectors, consisting of a 2...
متن کاملMaterial Identification Methods in Spectral Radiography Using CdTe Semiconductor Detectors
Material identification in radiography is traditionally performed by dualenergy systems, using double exposure technique or two-layers detectors. Performance of such systems results from the closeness of the materials to be discriminated, from photonic noise, and energetic discriminating power of the detector. For difficult problems such as explosive detection in luggage, conventional dual-ener...
متن کاملCOBRA - Double beta decay searches using CdTe detectors
A new approach (called COBRA) for investigating double beta decay using CdTe semiconductor detectors is proposed. This will allow simultaneous measurements of 5 β−β− and 4 ββ emitters at once. Half-life limits for neutrinoless double beta decay of Cd and Te can be improved by more than one order of magnitude and sensitivities on the effective Majorana neutrino mass of less than 1 eV can be obta...
