But the internal gain and the signal-noise ratio(SNR) of the output signal of pulse are affected by bias voltage and temperature. Purpose:This study aims to test the effect of bias voltage and temperature on the APD-based front-end readout of scintillation detector.Methods:The avalanche photodiode is employed as the photodetector for CsI(Tl) scintillation, and equiped a charge sensitive preamplifier of low noise to form a probe. The energy resolution of scintillation detector with this probe was tested on a137Cs radiation source under different bias voltage and temperature.Results: The experimental results show that the energy resolution of the detection system is affecte |
