Abstract :
One dimensional monolithic arrays and position sensitive detectors have been fabricated in p-type high purity germanium. The results of collimated beam scanning measurements of array response and of energy and spatial resolution measurements in the position sensitive detectors are reported. Position sensitive detectors exhibiting 4.0 mm spatial resolution for 122 keV excitation have been fabricated and it is shown that position resolution improves with increased gamma ray energy.
