Cadmium zinc telluride (CdZnTe)

Cadmium Zinc Telluride CdZnTe(CZT)  is considered the most promising room-temperature radiation detection material. Compared with flash detectors, it has higher energy and spatial resolution and can tolerate more radiation doses (1mcps/mm ²), And it's not easy to solve. Working at room temperature has good portability, and the detection efficiency per unit volume is higher than that of high purity. Compared with SI detectors, it has a wider detection energy range and much higher efficiency than SI detectors. Given the above advantages, zinc cadmium detectors have broad application prospects in nuclear safety instruments, security inspection equipment, medical imaging equipment, nuclear industry testing equipment, and astronomical detection equipment. Since 2007, the performance potential of the CdZnTe detector has been developed, and its superiority has received widespread attention. It is considered a key focus for future development and has entered a rapid development stage.

Features

▪ Compared to scintillator detectors, It can tolerate higher radiation doses (>1Mcps/mm2), has greater energy and spatial resolution than scintillator detectors, and is not readily deliquescent;
▪ Compared to high-purity germanium detectors, It is more portable and can operate at room temperature than high-purity germanium detectors. The detection efficiency per unit volume is higher than that of high-purity germanium;
▪ Compared to Si detectors, it has advantages such as a wider detection energy range and much higher efficiency than Si detectors;
▪ Excellent electrical performance, high absorption coefficient, and moderate thermal expansion;
▪ Used for epitaxial growth of HgCdTe (MCT);
▪ Can effectively convert radiation into electrons.
