Monte Carlo modelling of a compact CZT-based gamma camera with application to 177Lu imaging

Background Semiconductor gamma-camera systems based on cadmium zinc telluride (CZT) detectors present new challenges due to an energy-response that includes effects of low-energy tailing. In

Design studies of a CZT-based detector combined with a pixel-geometry-matching collimator for SPECT imaging

From the simulation studies, it is found that such a camera using rectangular holes has promising imaging characteristics in terms of spatial resolution, detection efficiency, and energy resolution.

Simulation of 3D Sensors

The Large Hadron Collider (LHC) at CERN has the highest energy and luminosity in the world. Radiation hardness is then a critical requirement for the inner tracker design. The inner tracker is

Fabrication and test of pixelated CZT detectors with different pixel pitches and thicknesses

The main methods grown Cadmium Zinc Telluride (CZT) crystals with high yield and excellent homogeneity are Modified Horizontal Bridgman (MHB) and High Pressure Bridgman (HPB) processes, respectively.

A method is given for computing the instantaneous current induced in neighboring conductors by a given specified motion of electrons. The method is based on the repeated use of a simple equation

Currents to Conductors Induced by a Moving Point Charge

General expressions are derived for the currents which flow in the external circuit connecting a system of conductors when a point charge is moving among the conductors. The results are applied to
