Radiation Resistance of SiC Detectors after Neutron Irradiation

The characteristics of detectors based on silicon carbide (SiC) before and after irradiation with integral neutron fluxes of 5.11 × 10 13 and 5.39 × 10 14 n/cm 2 are presented. On the samples irradiated with the maximum fluence, using alpha particles, a deterioration in the energy resolution by an o...

Summary:The characteristics of detectors based on silicon carbide (SiC) before and after irradiation with integral neutron fluxes of 5.11 × 10 13 and 5.39 × 10 14 n/cm 2 are presented. On the samples irradiated with the maximum fluence, using alpha particles, a deterioration in the energy resolution by an order of magnitude and a decrease in the efficiency of charge collection by ∼25% are shown.
