Description

A kind of semiconductor detector
This case is application number is the division of 201310149397.6.
Technical field
The present invention relates to detector technology field, particularly to a kind of semiconductor detector.
Background technology
Utilizing detector measurement high-energy ray such as X ray or gamma-ray power spectrum is one of the important means of nuclide identification. This kind of detector has been widely used for the fields such as nuclear radiation protection, core safety check, environmental conservation and Homeland Security, for detection of radioactive material. In prior art, this kind of detector is broadly divided into two classes: a class is with NaI (Tl) scintillator detector being representative, another kind of be representative with HpGe (HPGe) semiconductor detector.
Scintillator detector has prepares simple and cheap advantage. Portable gamma spectrum meter at detection onsite application is generally NaI or CsI scintillator detector. But, the energy resolution of scintillator detector is relatively low, and its energy resolution is 6%-7%662keV, it is impossible to meet the measurement requirement of complicated power spectrum fine structure.
The energy resolution of HpGe semiconductor detector is higher than scintillator detector. But, HpGe semiconductor detector is only capable of under liquid nitrogen temperature (77K) preserve and use, it is impossible at room temperature use. On the one hand, HpGe semiconductor detector needs configuration low-temperature (low temperature) vessel and vacuum chamber, causes that its volume and cost increase; On the other hand, when using HpGe semiconductor detector, it is necessary to add liquid nitrogen continually, causing that it cannot meet the instructions for use that field detection is on-the-spot, use scope is restricted.
In recent years, occurring in that the another kind of semiconductor detector that can at room temperature work, this kind of semiconductor detector uses material to be HgI2, GaAs, TiBr, CdTe, CdZnTe (cadmium-zinc-teiluride is abbreviated as CZT), CdSe, GaP, HgS, PbI2Or the semiconductor crystal of AlSb. The advantage that this kind of semiconductor detector has that volume is little, is easy to carry, energy resolution is high, detection efficient is high and can at room temperature work. At present, this kind of semiconductor detector is widely used to the fields such as environmental monitoring, nuclear medicine, industrial nondestructive testing, safety inspection, nuclear weapon prominent anti-, Aero-Space, astrophysics and high-energy physics.
The forbidden band of CdZnTe semiconductor crystal is 1.57eV, and its impedance is up to 1010Ω/cm, its average atomic number is 49.1, and its density is 5.78g/cm3, generating the pair of electrons-hole energy to needing is 4.64eV, is can at room temperature work and can process 2,000,000 photons/(s mm2) unique semi-conducting material.Research shows, the best performance of semiconductor detector using CdZnTe semiconductor crystal is different, be most suitable at room temperature using.
Compared with scintillator detector, the energy resolution of CdZnTe detector increases, and its energy resolution is apparently higher than NaI scintillator detector. Compared with HPGe detector, the forbidden band of CdZnTe detector is wider, and impedance is relatively big, and carrier concentration is relatively low so that it is after being biased, dark current is less, is a kind of semiconductor detector that can at room temperature work.
But, CdZnTe crystal is generally uneven, there is fault of construction, and therefore the mobility of the carrier of CdZnTe crystal is relatively low, and the drift time of carrier is longer, it is easy to producing carrier (especially hole) Trapping Phenomenon, namely carrier lifetime is shorter. The Trapping Phenomenon of carrier causes that the energy resolution of CdZnTe semiconductor detector reduces, and adopts CdZnTe semiconductor detector to measure the power spectrum obtained and mental retardation tail phenomenon occurs.
In order to improve the energy resolution of CdZnTe semiconductor detector, CdZnTe semiconductor detector generally adopts the electrode with unipolar charge sensitivity characteristics. This kind has the electrode of unipolar charge sensitivity characteristics and forms electric field, and high-energy ray and crystal interact the electronics produced and are moved to different directions by electric field action in hole, and wherein electronics is to anode movement, and hole is to cathode motion. Owing to the weight electromotive force of the position away from passive electrode is only small, therefore hole is very little to the contribution of induced signal in the motion of the position away from passive electrode, and induced signal is mainly contributed by electronics, thus realizing the semiconductor detector that unipolar charge is sensitive. In prior art, the CdZnTe semiconductor detector based on unipolar charge sensitivity characteristics specifically includes that parallel Frisch grid-type (ParallelFrischGrid), coplanar Frisch grid-type (CoplanarFrischGrid), hemispherical (Hemisphere), shape for hat (CAPture), quasi-dome-type (Quasi-hemisphere) and small pixel type (Pixelated) etc.
The semiconductor detector that unipolar charge is sensitive can reduce to a certain extent because hole migration speed is slow and the life-span short harmful effect that energy resolution is brought. But, the electronics of motion can be influenced by the impact of CdZnTe semiconductor die volume defect and is captured, when, drift time length low particularly in electric field intensity, electronics is captured comparatively notable, this causes the amplitude output signal fluctuation of passive electrode of CdZnTe semiconductor detector, thus affecting the energy resolution of CdZnTe semiconductor detector.
In sum, it is necessary to improve the energy resolution of CdZnTe semiconductor detector further.
