Effects of post-growth annealing on the performance of CdZnTe:In radiation detectors with different thickness

An effective post-growth annealing method was used to improve the performance of CdZnTe:In (CZT:In) radiation detectors. The results indicated that Te inclusions in CZT:In crystals with different thickness were eliminated completely after annealing. Both the resistivity and IR transmittance of annealed CZT:In crystals with different thickness increased obviously, which suggested that the crystal quality was improved. For the detector fabricated by annealed CZT:In slices with 2 mm thickness, the energy resolution and (μτ)_e value were enhanced about 63% and 115%, respectively. And for that fabricated by annealed CZT:In slices with 5 mm thickness, the energy resolution and (μτ)_e value were enhanced about 300% and 88%, respectively.

Float-Zone Mono-Crystalline Silicon

PAM-XIAMEN can offer float zone silicon wafer, which is obtained by Float Zone method. Monocrystalline silicon rods is got through float zone growth, and then process the monocrystalline silicon rods into silicon wafers, called float zone silicon wafers. Since the zone-melted silicon wafer is not in contact with the quartz crucible during the floating zone silicon process, the silicon material is in a suspended state. Thereby, it is less polluted during the process of floating zone melting of silicon. The carbon content and oxygen content are lower, the impurities are less, and the resistivity is higher. It is suitable for the manufacture of power devices and certain high-voltage electronic devices.

At room temperature, crystalline germanium is brittle and has little plasticity. Germanium has semiconductor properties. High-purity germanium is doped with trivalent elements (such as indium, gallium, boron) to obtain P-type germanium semiconductors; and pentavalent elements (such as antimony, arsenic, and phosphorus) are doped to obtain N-type germanium semiconductors. Germanium has good semiconductor properties, such as high electron mobility and high hole mobility.
