Title: Simulation and Comparison of Various Gamma-Ray Imaging Detector Configurations for IPRL Devices

Technical Report ·
DOI:https://doi.org/10.2172/898431· OSTI ID:898431

Simulations are performed for seven different geometrical configurations of CdZnTe (CZT) detector arrays for Intelligent Personal Radiation Locator (IPRL) devices. IPRL devices are portable radiation detectors that have gamma-ray imaging capability. The detector performance is analyzed for each type of IPRL configuration, and the intrinsic photopeak efficiency, intrinsic photopeak count rate, detector image resolution, imaging efficiency, and imaging count rate are determined.
