A production technology of nuclear radiation detectors based on αSi-Si(Li) heterostructures is considered. It is shown that these detectors are more efficient as compared to traditional p-n structures due to a thin near surface ("dead") layer. (a) (b) 3 2 1 4 3 2 1 Fig. 1. Design of the αSi-Si(Li) based detector: (a) detector, view from above; (b) general appearance of the detector; (1) single crystal silicon, compensated by the lithium ion drift method; (2) amorphous layer; (3) aluminum contact; and (4) gold contact.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
