CdZnTe Based, Room Temperature, High Resolution
Radiation Detector
The CAPture™ Plus is an ideal gamma-ray spectrometer
for portable instrumentation. Standard CdZnTe size is 10mm x 10mm
x 5mm and packaged in 15 x 15 x 15mm housing. The CAPture™ Plus
is designed for easy installation into a low power, portable Isotope
Identification systems-Spectroscopic Personal Radiation Detectors
(SPRDs).
