摘要
Characterization of the electrical response of HPGe segmented detectors as a function of the interaction position is one of the current goals for the Nuclear Physics community in order to perform gamma-ray tracking or even imaging with these detectors. For this purpose, scanning devices must be developed to achieve the signal-position association with the highest precision. With this aim, SALSA, a gamma-camera-based scanning system, is under development at our laboratory. In this work, the optimization study aimed to obtain the best spatial resolution in the position-sensitive detectors employed as gamma camera is described.
