  • Abstract
    Results of investigation of quantum count mode gallium arsenide pixel detectors are demonstrated. It was shown that at room temperature energy resolution of GaAs detector similar to silicon ones. But detection quantum efficiency (DQE) of 30 keV gamma-quanta of GaAs detector exceeds DQE of Si detector more then order of magnitude.
