The invention relates to a semiconductor drift detector for detecting radiation, comprising a semiconductor substrate (HS), in which signal charge carriers are generated during operation, to be precise by incident photons (h·f) having a specific photon energy, more particularly in the form of X-ray fluorescent radiation, and/or by incident electrons (⊖), having a specific signal charge carrier current, more particularly in the form of back-scattered electrons (⊖), and comprising a read-out anode (A) for generating an electrical output signal in a manner dependent on the signal charge carriers, and comprising an erase contact (RC) for erasing the signal charge carriers that have accumulated in the semiconductor substrate (HS). The invention provides for the semiconductor drift detector to be optionally operable in a first operating mode or in a second operating mode, wherein the semiconductor drift detector in the first operating mode measures the photon energy of the incident photons (h·f), whereas the semiconductor drift detector in the second operating mode measures the signal charge carrier current. Furthermore, the invention encompasses a corresponding operating method.

摘要:
There has been such a problem that radiation detecting elements using semiconductor elements have a low radiation detection efficiency, since the radiation detecting elements easily transmit radiation, even though the radiation detecting elements have merits, such as small dimensions and light weight. Disclosed are a radiation detecting element and a radiation detecting device, wherein a film formed of a metal, such as tungsten, is formed on the radiation incident surface of the radiation detecting element, and the incident energy of the radiation is attenuated. The efficiency of generating carriers by way of radiation incidence is improved by attenuating the incident energy, the thickness of the metal film is optimized, and the radiation detection efficiency is improved.
