  • Abstract
    Performance of halogen-doped CdTe gamma - ray detectors has been improved significantly by the development of new device fabrication methods. In particular, these detectors do not exhibit any of the previously observed polarization effects. Room temperature resolution of 7% at 122 keV has been achieved using applied fields of less than 50 V/mm for detectors up to 100 mm3 in volume.
