CHARACTERISING A SI(LI) DETECTOR ELEMENT FOR THE SIXA X-RAY SPECTROMETER
/ Authors
/ Abstract
Abstract The detection efficiency and response function of a Si(Li) detector element for the SIXA spectrometer have been determined in the 500 eV to 5 keV energy range using synchrotron radiation emitted at a bending magnet of the electron storage ring BESSY, which is a primary radiation standard. The agreement between the measured spectrum and the model calculation is better than 2%.
