Function of bias resistor in semiconductor detector

AI Thread Summary
The bias resistor in a CdZnTe radiation detector setup is crucial for applying the detector bias voltage, which influences the detector's performance and sensitivity. Selecting an appropriate bias resistor involves considering the desired voltage, the detector's characteristics, and the specific application requirements. The resistor helps to stabilize the voltage across the detector and can affect the signal-to-noise ratio. Proper biasing ensures optimal operation and enhances the detector's response to radiation. Understanding these factors is essential for effective detector design and implementation.

Hello everyone, I am currently working on a burnup calculation for a fuel assembly with repeated geometric structures using MCNP6. I have defined two materials (Material 1 and Material 2) which are actually the same material but located in different positions. However, after running the calculation with the BURN card, I am encountering an issue where all burnup information(power fraction(Initial input is 1,but output file is 0), burnup, mass, etc.) for Material 2 is zero, while Material 1...
