Preface

  • Thallium bromide (TlBr) semiconductor detectors are promising candidates for high-detection-efficiency, high-energy-resolution, and room-temperature gamma-ray spectrometers. In this study, we con ... Read More

  • Because thallium bromide (TlBr) semiconductor detectors with a wide bandgap show high detection efficiency and energy resolution, room-temperature gamma-ray spectrometers based on such detectors ... Read More

  • TlBr semiconductor detectors are candidate high-detection-efficiency, high-energy-resolution, and room-temperature gamma-ray spectrometers. We evaluate the effective volume of a small-anode TlBr ... Read More

  • Group-III nitride semiconductors, such as gallium nitride (GaN), have been proposed as novel materials for radiation detection owing to their wide bandgap and their ability to operate at high tem ... Read More

  • The significance of X-ray spectral information is steadily growing. However, pile-up is becoming a pertinent problem at high dosage levels. Additionally, attempts to mitigate pile-up by reducing ... Read More

  • Polarization poses a significant challenge in cadmium telluride (CdTe) detectors, preventing the simultaneous achievement of high energy resolution and long-term stability at room temperature. Th ... Read More

  • An n-type layer was formed in p-type CdTe via the laser-induced back-side doping of In with a Nd:YAG laser. Hall effect measurements confirmed the formation of an n-type layer on the In- doped ar ... Read More

  • Cadmium telluride (CdTe) is used as an X-ray image detector for dental applications. However, it is difficult to fabricate the large CdTe chips for such applications. Therefore, it is necessary t ... Read More

  • We evaluated the neutron bang time in fast-ignition inertial confinement fusion and the response function of deuterium-deuterium (DD) neutrons for burn history monitoring applications with a sing ... Read More

  • Thallium bromide (TlBr) is a candidate material for room-temperature semiconductor gamma-ray detectors with high detection efficiency and energy resolution. By adopting a pixelated detector confi ... Read More

  • Die-cast light metal alloys in various industrial applications require precise airtightness, and vacuum pressure impregnation (VPI) is typically used to seal casting defects to ensure product rel ... Read More

  • To measure soft X-ray energy spectra at room temperature using diamond, we connected a 300-μm-thick single-crystal CVD diamond radiation detector with excellent charge carrier transport properti ... Read More

  • To develop semiconductor detectors based on TlBr with excellent energy resolution at high yields, a variety of characterization methods for TlBr crystals are necessary. Among the various methods ... Read More

  • The changes in thallium bromide (TlBr) surfaces induced by plasma etching were characterized by X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS). A TlBr crystal was grown by the traveling molten zone metho ... Read More
