| Abstract: | A new gas-multiplication radiation detector utilizing CNTs as anodes is proposed. A very compact detector with good spatial and temporal resolutions might be built. The designing and development of a prototype detector is described. Argon gas or liquid is adopted as radiation-converting medium. The detector body can be evacuated and cooled down to liquid nitrogen temperature. Silicon wafers on which single-wall CNTs are grown are used as the detector anode. |
