To begin with, we have chosen this topic due to the fact that silicon radiation detectors are one of the main type of particle detectors used in the radiation detection industry nowadays. Hence, it is crucial for an engineer in this field to know the history of silicon production as well as the development process and concrete examples of the different types of detectors.
In this wiki page we are studying the rapid progress of the silicon radiation detectors, the design of the single sided stereo angle silicon strip detector, cadmium telluride (CdTe) and cadmium zinc telluride (CdZnTe) or CZT pixel detectors and the development of the detectors in Finland. The information was collected from Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers/Institution of Electrical Engineers (IEEE/IEE) Electronic Library online.
