Silicon Radiation Detectors

A few of the applications for these detectors include:

• Nuclear : Personal Dosimeter, Area dose monitor, spectrometer, etc.
• Medical : CT scanners, X ray detection, Pulse Oximeters, Blood particle analyzers, X ray dose monitoring in X ray centers, Radiation dose monitoring for cancer treatment, etc.
• Safety equipment : Security inspection equipment- Airport X ray baggage scanning system, X ray systems for cargo scanning at dockyards, Intruder alert-security system, etc.
• Automotive : Twilight detectors, Climate control-sunlight detector, etc.
• Industry : Bar code scanners, Brightness controls, encoders, position sensors, copiers-density of toner.
