  • Modification of solid state CdZnTe (CZT) radiation detectors with high sensitivity or high resolution operation
    Patent number: 8884228
    Abstract: An apparatus and process is provided to illustrate the manipulation of the internal electric field of CZT using multiple wavelength light illumination on the crystal surface at RT. The control of the internal electric field is shown through the polarization in the IR transmission image under illumination as a result of the Pockels effect.
    Type: Grant
    Filed: January 27, 2012
    Date of Patent: November 11, 2014
    Assignees: Savannah River Nuclear Solutions, LLC, Fisk University
