Application of large-area avalanche photodiodes to energy-dispersive x-ray fluorescence analysis

The performance of several large-area avalanche photodiodes (LAAPDs) for application to x-ray spectrometry at room temperature was investigated. Optimum detector performance was obtained for gains of about 50-70. Good energy linearity of the LAAPDs' response to x-rays was observed up to energie...
