A multielement solid-state detector system for use on the SRS materials science Station 9.3

Abstract
This article describes the design of a multielement solid‐state detector system for use on the SRS materials science Station 9.3. The detector system is discussed in detail and test data are presented. The current system consists of 13, 8‐mm diam, germanium diodes mounted in a single cryostat. The system operates with a 0.5‐μs shaping time and achieves better than 200‐eV resolution at 5.9 keV. Rate and resolution characteristics of the system are discussed with a view to future improvements in the system.
