Summary
This paper presents a technical characterisation of a CdTe double-sided strip detector with 60 µm pitch, evaluating its imaging and spectral performance for high-energy physics applications. The work focuses on detector instrumentation development rather than agricultural or food-system research. While the detector technology itself has no direct relevance to farming systems or soil health, such advanced measurement instrumentation may have tangential applications in analytical chemistry for food or soil composition analysis, though this connection is not explored in the paper.
UK applicability
This is fundamental physics instrumentation research with no direct applicability to UK agricultural practice, soil health, or nutritional science. It may have indirect relevance only if the detector technology were subsequently adapted for analytical measurement in food or soil laboratories, but this is not addressed in the current work.
Key measures
Detector imaging performance, spectral resolution, pitch geometry (60 µm), cadmium telluride material properties, energy response characteristics
Outcomes reported
The study evaluated imaging and spectral performance characteristics of a 60 µm pitch cadmium telluride double-sided strip detector. Assessment included detector response, energy resolution, and spatial imaging capabilities under controlled laboratory conditions.
