Schottky diodes are a type of diode that have a metal-semiconductor junction instead of a p-n junction. This means that they have a lower voltage drop across them when they are forward biased ...

Time-resolved charge-collection measurements performed on AlSb/InAs/GaSb resonant interband tunneling diodes (RITDs) with pulsed laser excitation exhibit complex behavior as a function of the device ...

We have developed a CMOS circuit to be used with Silicon Drift Detectors (SDDs) for X-ray spectroscopy and gamma-ray imaging applications. The circuit operates with the input transistor integrated ...

Hexagonal boron nitride (h-BN), together with other members of the van der Waals crystal family, has been studied for over a decade, both in terms of fundamental and applied research. Up to now, the ...

Radiation detection, using materials to convert high-energy photons to low-energy photons (X-ray imaging) or electrical charges (X-ray detector), has become essential for a wide range of applications ...
