Performance evaluation of a new 30 μm thick GaAs x-ray detector grown by MBE

A circular mesa (400 μm diameter) GaAs p ^+ -i-n ^+ photodiode with a 30 μm thick i layer was characterized for its performance as a detector in photon counting x-ray spectroscopy at 20 °C. The detector was fabricated from material grown by molecular beam epitaxy (MBE). An earlier MBE-grown detector...
