Wide band gap compound semiconductor detectors for x-ray spectroscopy in harsh environments

Novel photon counting Alo.8Gao.2As, GaAs and SiC X-ray photodiodes were investigated through experiments and Monte Carlo computer simulations for their suitability as spectroscopic soft (:S 25 keY) X-ray detectors in high temperature (up to 90 QC) environments. Photon counting Alo.8Gao.2As and GaAs...
