Abstract
The characteristics of photodiodes with areas of 1 cm(2) and manufactu red from the high-resistance (rho(n) = 7 k Ohm . cm) silicon wafers pr oduced by Wacker are given. Gamma detectors including EGO or CsI(Tl) s cintillators with volumes of 1, 10, 20, and 106 cm(3) have been built using these photodiodes. The energy resolutions at a photon energy of 662 keV are 6, 8, 9, and 14%, respectively.
