Spectrum
Figure 1: The spectrum has been acquired in KETEK’s standard end qualification test stand with an Fe-55 source using an XIA Mercury signal processing unit. The input count rate has been 10 kcps at a peaking time of 1 µs. The spectrum shows a very good energy resolution for Mn-Kα and an excellent peak-to-background ratio.
Energy Resolution
Figure 2: Energy resolution (Mn-Kα) values for peaking times from 0.1µs through 8 µs showing good FWHM values even for higher operating temperatures. Depending on the application the best performance can be achieved by an appropriate selection of peaking time and set operating temperature.
