Characterization and modeling of thermally-induced doping contaminants in high-purity Germanium

Virginia Boldrini, Gianluigi Maggioni, Sara Carturan +6

High purity Ge (HPGe) is the key material for gamma ray detector production. Its high purity level (< 2x10^(-4) ppb of doping impurity) has to be preserved in the bulk during the p…
