摘要
The energy spectra of Am-241 alpha particles were measured by a detector employing the compound semiconductor InSb at an operating temperature below 4.2 K. The fabrication method and current-voltage curves are shown. Though the energy resolution of the detector is not discussed in this article, this is the first report on an InSb radiation detector.
