Si/CdTe semiconductor compton camera [PDF]
IEEE Symposium Conference Record Nuclear Science 2004., 2005 We are developing a Compton camera based on Si and CdTe semiconductor imaging devices with high energy resolution. In this paper, results from the most recent prototype are reported. The Compton camera consists of six layered double-sided Si Strip detectors and CdTe pixel detectors, which are read out with low noise analog ASICs, VA32TAs.

Development of hybrid shielding system for large-area Compton camera: A Monte Carlo study
Nuclear Engineering and Technology, 2020 s: Compton cameras using large scintillators have been developed for high imaging sensitivity. These scintillator-based Compton cameras, however, mainly due to relatively low energy resolution, suffer from undesired background-radiation signals ...
