THE STUDY OF ALKALI HALIDE CRYSTAL COUNTERS

Abstract

The object of this work was to study the behavior of electrons and holes in alkali halides. It was desired to measure the mobility of electrons and holes, and also to study their production, their trapping, and the temperature dependence of these processes. For reasons which are not understood, the results have been largely negative, although several interesting phenomena have been noticed which deserve further investigation.
