Abstract :
The FMF is developing gamma ray detectors with Coplanar Grid (CPG) configuration based on (Cd, Zn)Te. The work is focused on the crystal growth of detector material as well as the development of read-out electronics and data acquisition systems (GMCA). In order to increase the active detector volume, several CPG detectors are stacked back to back. To improve overall quality of the energy spectrum different methods to detect coincident events are tested and their results discussed.
