RECENT WORK ON INSTRUMENTATION FOR NUCLEAR PULSE-HEIGHT SPECTROSCOPY. MANUFACTURING TECHNIQUES AND PERFORMANCE OF SURFACE BARRIER SEMICONDUCTOR DETECTORS
Abstract
The invention of the semiconductor detector for charged nuclear particles opened up new possibilities in the use of pulse-height spectroscopy techniques. At the Nobel Institute a wide range of applications of semiconductor detectors is foreseen. The various experiments demand different types of detectors which generally have a limited life time. In order to secure a sufficient supply of adequate units, production of surface barrier detectors was started at the institute. A description of the detectors and the production techniques employed is given. (Author)
