Abstract

Gallium Arsenide crystals are among the most efficient detectors of X-rays at room temperature. Different GaAs crystals have been irradiated with photons from radioactive sources, to compare their response in view of a possible application for Digital Radiology. The detectors have been obtained by various manufacturers and with different techniques (LEC and LPE crystals). Experimental results include I-V curves, charge collection efficiency and detection efficiency as a function of bias. A comparison is made with a simulation program.
