ORTEC F Series

Partially depleted silicon surface-barrier detectors for heavy ions

Partially depleted silicon surface-barrier detectors for heavy-ion spectroscopy, with active areas from 100 to 900 mm² and depletion depths of at least 60 µm. Standard detectors are cut off-axis from the parent crystal to minimise channelling and are supplied in B mount unless specified otherwise.

Detector type
Partially depleted silicon surface barrier1
Active area
100, 300, 400, 600 or 900 mm²1
Depletion depth
≥60 µm, partially depleted; greater depths on special order1
