We report on avalanche gain of ~2×104, stable within ~3% after an accumulated charge of 4 [mu]C/mm2, when irradiated with 0.5 kHz/mm2 5.9 keV photons. No photon-induced secondary effects or discharges have been observed at this gain. An energy resolution of 14% was obtained with 5.9 keV X-rays. | URI: | https://hdl.handle.net/10316/4417 | DOI: | 10.1016/j.nima.2005.07.004 | Rights: | openAccess |
