@article{1442112, note = {Includes index.}, author = {Iniewski, Krzysztof,}, url = {http://library.usi.edu/record/1442112}, title = {Advanced materials for radiation detection /}, abstract = {This book offers readers an overview of some of the most recent advances in the field of advanced materials used for gamma and X-ray imaging. Coverage includes both technology and applications, with an in-depth review of the research topics from leading specialists in the field. Emphasis is on high-Z materials like CdTe, CZT and GaAs, as well as perovskite crystals, since they offer the best implementation possibilities for direct conversion X-ray detectors. Authors discuss material challenges, detector operation physics and technology and readout integrated circuits required to detect signals processes by high-Z sensors. Provides coverage of a broad range of topics, from international experts in academia and industry; Includes in-depth analysis of how to optimize X-ray detection and electronics for X-ray detection; Covers both technology and applications in a number of different domains.}, doi = {https://doi.org/10.1007/978-3-030-76461-6}, recid = {1442112}, pages = {1 online resource :}, }
