I can't seem to find any alpha detectors using your first few ("Si-PIN detector" and "Si drift detector") keywords, I only get gamma detectors. I would like to get a high-quality (lab level) detector for alpha spectroscopy without the use of a large (and very expensive?) nitrogen-cooled...

I am looking for an alpha detector to do an alpha spectroscopy (and maybe beta as well). The rough setup is a vacuum tube with a detector in one end and a source in the other, possibly with a magnet in the middle. I have googled around, but my problem is that I don't really know what is...
