  1. 1. Applications of Pulse Shape Analysis Techniques for Segmented Planar Germanium Detectors

    Författare :Anton Khaplanov; Bo Cederwall; Bo Jakobsson; KTH; []
    Nyckelord :NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Position sensitive detectors; pulse shape analysis; germanium detectors; DESPEC; ; Nuclear physics; Kärnfysik;

    Sammanfattning : The application of pulse shape analysis (PSA) and γ-ray tracking techniques has attracted a great deal of interest in the recent years in fields ranging from nuclear structure studies to medical imaging. These new data analysis methods add position sensitivity as well as directional information for the detected γ-rays to the excellent energy resolution of germanium detectors. LÄS MER

  2. 2. Spectroscopy along Decay Chains of Element 114, Flerovium

    Författare :Anton Såmark-Roth; Kärnfysik; []
    Nyckelord :NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Superheavy elements; Flerovium; Nuclear Structure; Spectroscopy; Alpha decay; Electromagnetic decay; Spontaneous fission; Germanium detectors; Fysicumarkivet A:2021:Såmark-Roth;

    Sammanfattning : This thesis focusses on a nuclear spectroscopy experiment conducted to study α-decay chains stemming from isotopes of flerovium (element Z = 114). An upgraded TASISpec decay station was placed behind the gas-filled separator TASCA at the GSI Helmholtzzentrum für Schwerionenforschung in Darmstadt, Germany. LÄS MER

  3. 3. Characterisation of the Neutron Wall and of Neutron Interactions in Germanium-Detector Systems

    Författare :Joa Ljungvall; Johan Nyberg; Andres Gadea; Uppsala universitet; []
    Nyckelord :NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Nuclear physics; High-purity Ge detectors; Liquid scintillator detectors; Neutron scattering; Digital electronics; Time-of-flight technique; Pulse-shape simulation and analysis; Monte Carlo simulations; Geant4; Gamma-ray tracking; AGATA; Neutron Wall; Kärnfysik; Nuclear physics; Kärnfysik;

    Sammanfattning : A Monte Carlo simulation of the Neutron Wall detector system has been performed using Geant4, in order to define optimum conditions for the detection and identification of multiple neutrons. Emphasis was put on studying the scattering of neutrons between different detectors, which is the main source of the apparent increase of the number of detected neutrons. LÄS MER

  4. 4. Position-sensitive germanium detectors for gamma-ray tracking, imaging and polarimetry

    Författare :Anton Khaplanov; Bo Cederwall; Araceli Lopez-Martens; KTH; []
    Nyckelord :NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Nuclear physics; Kärnfysik;

    Sammanfattning : Modern germanium detectors are often manufactured with two-dimensionally segmented electrical contacts. Signals induced in each segment are read out simultaneously when a photon is detected. Detailed pulse shape analysis (PSA) of these signals allows to resolve positions of individual γ-ray interactions with a precision of at least a few mm. LÄS MER

  5. 5. Application of SiGe(C) in high performance MOSFETs and infrared detectors

    Författare :Mohammadreza Kolahdouz Esfahani; Henry Radamson; Ya-Hong Xie; KTH; []
    Nyckelord :TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Silicon Germanium Carbon SiGeC ; Reduced Pressure Chemical Vapor Deposition RPCVD ; Epitaxy; Pattern Dependency; MOSFET; Mobility; bolometer; Quantum Well; Infrared IR Detection; Ni Silicide; High Resolution X-ray Diffraction HRXRD ; High Resolution Scanning Electron Microscopy HRSEM ; Electrical engineering; electronics and photonics; Elektroteknik; elektronik och fotonik;

    Sammanfattning : Epitaxially grown SiGe(C) materials have a great importance for many device applications. In these applications, (strained or relaxed) SiGe(C) layers are grown either selectively on the active areas, or on the entire wafer. LÄS MER
