Popis: A technique for manufacturing heavy charged particle detectors based on high-resistance epitaxial silicon layers is described. The special feature of this technique is the design of a rectifying structure based on a Pd2Si−Si heterojunction. The intrinsic resolution obtainedR int=17 keV for α-particles of238Pu (E α=5.49 MeV) demonstrates that it is possible to design heavy charged particle detectors based on epitaxial silicon layers with good spectrometric characteristics.
