Product Spec Sheet PDF Format

The A-series is optimized for high-resolution, high sensitivity, and low-background alpha spectroscopy.

The thin dead layer of the PIPS detector provides enhanced resolution with the close detector-source spacing needed for high efficiency.

The background count rate for A-series PIPS detectors is typically less than 0.05 counts/hr/cm² in the energy range of 3 to 8 MeV.

Alpha PIPS detectors have a minimum active thickness of greater than 140 μm which is sufficient for full absorption of alpha particles of up to 15 MeV.

A-Series: 300 to 1200mm² with minimum 140µm active thickness
