摘要：
Two 2.25-cm(3) CdZnTe gamma-ray spectrometers with three-dimensional (3-D) position sensitivity were constructed and tested. By using 11 x 11 pixellated, anodes and depth-sensing techniques, individual spectral data for each of similar to4800 voxels; were collected throughout the detector volume. Energy resolution of 1.11% and 1.14% FWHM at 662 KeV were obtained for single-pixel events from these two detectors, respectively. Spatial variations of electron mobility-lifetime product, energy resolution, photopeak efficiency, and total efficiency have been observed and analyzed. This analysis provides a direct observation on the uniformity of detector response (due to material, weighting potential, and electric field distribution) in 3-D. Possible defects in the detector are identified.. The impact of the spatial variation of detector response on a CZT gamma-ray spectrometer is discussed.
