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.
