Abstract

A procedure for manufacturing detectors (with a diameter of ∼1 mm and thickness of 0.1 mm) based on high-purity epitaxial layers of 4H-SiC polytype is described, and results of investigation of their parameters are presented. It is shown that the designed detectors have good spectrometric characteristics in α particle detection in a wide energy range. The measured 241Am γ ray spectra are also given.
