Full Description

Scope

This standard applies to germanium radiation detectors that are primarily used for detection and high-resolution spectroscopy of gamma radiation. These devices are also used for X-ray spectroscopy and occasionally for charged-particle spectroscopy. This standard describes the measurement of detector system performance characteristics that are important to the detector user. The measurement techniques described have been selected to be readily available to manufacturers and users of germanium detectors.

Abstract

Revision Standard - Inactive-Withdrawn.Terminology and standard test procedures for germanium radiation detectors that are used for the detection and high-resolution spectrometry of gamma rays, X rays, and charged particles that produce hole-electron pairs in the crystal lattice are established so they have the same meaning to both manufacturers and users.
