Determination of the dead layer and full-energy peak efficiency of an HPGe detector using the MCNP code and experimental results

One important factor in using an High Purity Germanium (HPGe) detector is its efficiency that highly depends on the geometry and absorption factors, so that when the configuration of source-detector geometry is changed, the detector efficiency must be re-measured. The best way of determining the eff...
