摘要
We present a preliminary study of the performance of semi insulating indium phosphide (InP) crystals and its possible use in nuclear radiation detection at room temperature. Devices having an active area of 12 mm(2) showed a 5% resolution (FWHM) for 5.48 MeV alpha particles. Analyses of photo spectra indicated that the trapping of holes was primarily responsible for degrading the alpha response.
