HIGH RANGE GAMMA RADIAC DEVELOPMENT. AMPLIFIER DESIGN FOR USE WITH SMALL SILICON DIODE DETECTORS,

Abstract

Low cost silicon diode detectors for use in a high range (1 R/h to 10,000 R/h) gamma radiac were investigated and a computer program developed for processing energy response data. A simple low cost amplifier using bipolar transistors was designed for use with the diodes. Bipolar transistors are shown to be the best active elements for this purpose by the theoretical methods developed during this investigation. (Author)
