13、Particle Detectors.)This standard provides standard test procedures for semiconductor charged-particle detectors for ionizing radiation. Itsupersedes the previous edition, ANSI/IEEE Std 300-1982. The standard has been modied and rened based on theexperience gained in using the earlier edition over a
14、 number of years, taking into account advances in the technology.Companion documents are ANSI/IEEE Std 301-1988, Test Procedures for Ampliers and Preampliers Used withDetectors of Ionizing Radiation, and ANSI/ IEEE Std 759-1984, IEEE Standard Test Procedures for Semiconductor X-ray Energy Spectromet

Scope and Object1.1 ScopeThis standard applies to semiconductor radiation detectors that are used for the detection and high-resolutionspectroscopy of charged part
29、icles. The measurement techniques described were selected to be readily available to all manufacturers and users of charged-particle detectors. Some superior techniques are not included because the methods are too complex or require equipment (such as particle accelerators) which may not be readily
30、available.Test procedures for the associated ampliers and preampliers are described in ANSI/IEEE Std 301-1988 2.11.2 ObjectThe object of this standard is to establish standard test procedures for semiconductor charged-particle detectors. These detectors are in widespread use for the detection and hi
31、gh-resolution spectroscopy of charged particles. It is desirable to maintain standard test procedures so that measurements may have the same meaning to all manufacturers and users.Not all tests described in this standard are mandatory, but tests which are used to specify performance shall be perform
32、ed in accordance with the procedures described herein.2.
