Characterising a Si(Li) detector element for the SIXA X-ray spectrometer
Abstract
The detection efficiency and response function of a Si(Li) detector element for the SIXA spectrometer have been determined in the 500 eV to 5 keV energy range using synchrotron radiation emitted at a bending magnet of the electron storage ring BESSY, which is a primary radiation standard. The agreement between the measured spectrum and the model calculation is better than 2%. PACS: 95.55.Ka; 07.85.Nc; 29.40.Wk; 85.30.De Keywords: Si(Li) detectors, X-ray spectrometers, detector calibration, X-ray response, spectral lineshape
