The advances in semiconductor detectors, scintillators,
photodetectors such as silicon photomultipliers (SiPM), and reaodut
electronics have experienced tremendous growth in recent years in
terms of basic technologies and variety of applications.The second
edition of the book Radiation Detection Systems presents variety of
radiation detection systems giving readers a broad view of the
state-of-the-art in the design of detectors, front-end electronics
and systems offering optimized choices of the detection tools for a
particular application. The new edition has been divided into two
volumes. This first volume, on Sensor Materials, Systems,
Technology and Characterization Measurements puts emphasis on
sensor materials, detector structures, front electronics technology
and their designs as well as system optimization for different
applications. Also, the book include characterization measurements
of the developed detection systems. Featuring contributions from
leading experts and pioneers in their respective fields, this book
* describes progress in growth technologies of cadmium zinc
telluride (CdZnTe) and cadmium telluride (CdTe) materials * shows
variety of specific detector structure designs and their
integration with front-end amplification/processing electronics *
presents detection systems based on CdZnTe and CdTe detector
technologies that are optimized for specific applications. The
designed systems are characterized in terms of their spectral
responses, spatial and timing resolutions * addresses incomplete
charge collection, pulse pileup, charge sharing between neighboring
detector pixels and other phenomena that can degrade the spectral
response of photon-counting detectors * reports new developments of
silicon photomultipliers used for reading the light from
scintillators that starting to make a big impact particularly in
the design concepts of novel medical instrumentation With its
combined coverage of new materials and innovative new system
approaches, as well as a succinct overview of recent developments,
this book is an invaluable tool for any engineer, professional, or
student working in electronics or an associated field. Readers can
refer to the second book to get a detailed understanding of more
specific applications of the detection systems in medical imaging,
industrial testing and security applications.
