Abstract

Fabrication of Si(Li) nuclear radiation detectors using lithium ion drift under the action of a pulsed electric field is considered. Optimum treatment regime parameters are determined, including the pulse amplitude, duration, and repetition rate. Experimental data are presented, which show that the ion drift in a pulsed electric field decreases the semiconductor bulk compensation time by a factor of two to four and significantly increases the efficiency of detectors.
