Recent advances in THM CZT for Nuclear Radiation Detection
The introduction of large single crystal and high performance CdZnTe (CZT) grown by the traveling heater method (THM) in 2006 has defied conventional myths about the capability of this crystal growth method wi...

Recent developments in semiconductor gamma-ray detectors
The successful development of lithium-drifted Ge detectors in the 1960s marked the beginning of the significant use of semiconductor crystals for direct detection and spectroscopy of gamma-rays. In the 1970s, ...

Physics-based generation of gamma-ray response functions for CdZnTe detectors
A physics-based approach to gamma-ray response-function generation is presented in which the response of CdZnTe detectors is modeled from first principles. Numerical modeling is used to generate response funct...

Thermo-Coulomb effects in mesoscopic tunnel junctions
We present a study of the thermoelectric effect in tunnel junctions. In particular we calculate the thermopower coefficientS and the Peltier coefficient π. For macroscopic junctions we demonstrate the sensitivity...
