Radiation dosimetry in medicine using II-VI semiconductors
For several decades, radiation detection has been implemented using mainly silicon (Si) and germanium (Ge). However, group II-VI compound semiconductors such as cadmium telluride (CdTe), cadmium sulfide (CdS), cadmium selenide (CdSe), zinc selenide (ZnSe)

Fabrication and characterization of high-resolution 4H-SiC epitaxial radiation detectors for challenging reactor dosimetry environments [PDF]
Reactor dosimetry environments require radiation detectors that are capable of operating at high temperatures in extremely high neutron and gamma-ray dose rates. Silicon carbide (SiC) is one of the most promising wide bandgap semiconductors (3.27 eV) for

Transition radiation detectors [PDF]
We review the basic features of transition radiation and how they are used for the design of modern Transition Radiation Detectors (TRD). The discussion will include the various realizations of radiators as well as a discussion of the detection media and aspects of detector construction.
