Title: | Planar array technology for the fabrication of germanium x-ray microcalorimeters | Authors: | LO CICERO, UGO Arnone, Claudio BARBERA, Marco COLLURA, Alfonso Lullo, Giuseppe VARISCO, Salvatore |
Issue Date: | 2008 | Journal: | IEEE CONFERENCE RECORD - NUCLEAR SCIENCE SYMPOSIUM & MEDICAL IMAGING CONFERENCE | Volume: | 2008 IEEE Nuclear Science Symposium Conference Record | First Page: | 1789 | Abstract: | Several technologies are presently competing for measuring the temperature increase in cryogenic microcalorimeters used as high resolution energy-dispersive X-ray detectors. Doped germanium, whose resistivity depends on temperature, is a promising material for this purpose, because of its comparatively low specific heat and the possibility of making wafers with high doping uniformity by neutron transmutation. Presently, Ge-based microcalorimeters are still micro-machined and manually assembled. Here we present a planar approach to the fabrication of 2-D arrays of microcalorimeters and show the preliminary technological results. ©2008 IEEE. | Note: | © 2008 IEEE.
