When the topic is radiation detection, thoughts turn naturally to the venerable Geiger-Müller tube. It’s been around for ages, Russian surplus tubes are available for next to nothing, and it’s easy to ...
Opto Diode introduces the 20 mm2 photodiode with a circular active area that is ideal for electron detection. Opto Diode introduces the 20 mm2 photodiode with a circular active area that is ideal for ...
Graphene is a remarkable material: light, strong, transparent and electrically conductive. It can also convert heat to electricity, and researchers have recently exploited this thermoelectric property ...
The new 20-element AXUV20ELG features a 22-pin, dual in-line package with 100 percent internal quantum efficiency (QE). Bolometry, the measurement of minute amounts of radiant energy, is a key ...
Researchers in the Oregon State University College of Engineering have developed new technology for uranium enrichment measurement and trace element detection, vital for nuclear nonproliferation and ...
The traditional diode AM detector is shown in Figure 1. This detector has to operate at zero DC potential, so if the source has a DC component, the R-C combination is needed to block the DC in the ...
The Government Accountability Office says that the Department of Homeland Security has been encouraging vendors of new radiation detection equipment to cheat on upcoming tests, The Washington Post ...
