    Sammanfattning : Spectral computed tomography with energy-resolving detectors has a potential to improve the detectability of images and correspondingly reduce the radiation dose to patients by extracting and properly using the energy information in the broad x-ray spectrum. A silicon photon-counting detector has been developed for spectral CT and it has successfully solved the problem of high photon flux in clinical CT applications by adopting the segmented detector structure and operating the detector in edge-on geometry.

  7. 5. Calculations of defect related properties in semiconductors

    Författare :Sven Öberg; Luleå tekniska universitet; []
    Nyckelord :NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Scientific Computing; Teknisk-vetenskapliga beräkningar;

    Sammanfattning : Many of the most important and useful properties of crystalline materials, such as mechanical strength and electrical resistance, are determined by the presence of lattice defects and impurities. Well known examples are dislocations which control plastic flow and make metals ductile, and dopant atoms which control the extrinsic conduction in semiconductors and insulators. LÄS MER
