This paper investigates the performance of 1 mm resolution cadmium zinc telluride (CZT) detectors for positron emission tomography (PET) capable of positioning the 3D coordinates of individual 511 keV photon interactions. The detectors comprise 40 mm

Coded mask imaging can produce excellent images in the hard X-ray range from ∼10 to 200 keV, and up to several MeV in the gamma-ray range. Sub-degree resolution is obtained for hard X-rays and a few-degree resolution for gamma-rays. However, these

Our team is developing the CZT Small Animal PET System, a 1-mm resolution imager for small animal studies. The techniques are also applicable to breast imaging with PET, and Compton imaging for gamma-ray surveillance and threat assessment. CZT detect

It is desirable to characterize the charge production and transport properties of CZT wafers prior to fabrication into detectors. This allows rejection of undesirable material early in the production cycle as well as acceptance of less-than-perfect m

We explore the possibility to improve the performance of 0.5 cm thick cadmium zinc telluride (CZT) detectors with the help of steering grids on the anode side of the detectors. Steering grids can improve the energy resolution of CZT detectors by enha

Multiple-site interactions initiated by Compton scattering are the primary interaction processes of gamma-rays in CZT in ~0.2 - several MeV range. Thus, exploiting gamma-rays as directional and spectral diagnostic probes requires detectors with 3-D r

We report here on the optimization of 0.5 cm thick pixelated Orbotech CZT detectors with regards to the best contacting materials and the use of steering grids. We evaluated the performance of different contacting materials. Our study differs from ea

The Government is deploying a growing number of radiation detectors at U.S. borders, ports of entry and other key locations, intended to assist in the detection of a potential terrorist's nuclear explosive device or radiological dispersal device. The

We are developing 10 mm thick CZT detectors with 3-D readout for ~100 keV to ~1.5 MeV gamma-rays. Multiple-site gamma-ray interactions are fully measured, i.e., the energy and 3-D position of each site are determined. Spatial resolution is 1 mm FWHM.
