Abstract

Effective x-ray detector for the analysis of incident radiation should possess charge collection efficiency. This requirement mean that very pure materials with extremely small concentrations of trapping centers be used. The mobility-lifetime product is a fundamental material property that can be used to screen the starting material for high performance x-ray detectors. In the present work, the mobility-lifetime product of CdTe/CdZnTe crystals is obtained from the dependence of the average charge collection efficiency upon the bias voltage. The efficiency is evaluated by measuring the spectra for given sources.
