Sources of error and filtering of detector pulses
Electronics for radiation detectors

A measurement chain consists of one or more detectors and a set of electronic functions to best estimate the physical quantity to be measured. To define it, it is necessary to have an electrical model of the detector.

A radiation detector is equivalent to a current generator [13], the duration of the current pulse is linked to the transit time of the charges created in the detector. Note that the shape of the current pulse I_D (t ) created is independent of the readout electronics. To complete the electrical model, we introduce the equivalent detector capacitance C_D, the contact resistance R_series and the detector leakage DC current I_f;...
