RESEARCH INVESTIGATION OF p-i-n ELECTRON JUNCTION DETECTORS

Abstract

For the purposes of studying the response of silicon, lithium-drifted p-i-n junction detectors to electron sources, an extrapolation chamber and its associated circuitry were set up and put in working condition. The measurement of surface dose rates for carefully specified geometries has begun, using a liquid thallium-204 thick source.
