Semiconductor radiation detectors that can operate at high temperature are desperately needed by industry, academia, and governments for applications including nuclear power, decommissioning, and waste monitoring; non-destructive testing; mining; healthcare; space exploration; synchrotron science; nuclear research; sterilisation of food and other items; and with particular urgency, for national security and defence applications: the detection and interdiction of contraband nuclear and radiological material at ports and boarders, as well as at strategic locations, and in the field is a particularly pressing problem. Such capabilities are required for nuclear non-proliferation and the prevention of nuclear terrorism. They are also required for the detection and monitoring of covert nuclear programmes and intentional or accidental radiological contamination.This project will develop novel X-ray and [gamma]-ray detectors and rapidly bring them to market. The UK will benefit from the development of a new commercially available X-ray/[gamma]-ray detector technology that has the potential to outperform existing technologies and provide benefits to multiple industries and fields.

工业界、学术界和政府迫切需要能够在高温下工作的半导体辐射探测器，其应用包括核电、退役和废物监测;无损检测;采矿;医疗保健;空间探索;同步加速器科学;核研究;食品和其他物品的消毒;特别是国家安全和国防应用：在港口和边境以及战略地点和实地探测和拦截违禁核材料和放射性材料是一个特别紧迫的问题。这种能力是核不扩散和防止核恐怖主义所必需的。探测和监测秘密的核方案以及有意或意外的放射性污染也需要这些探测器，本项目将开发新型X射线和[伽马]射线探测器，并迅速将其推向市场。英国将受益于新的商用X射线/伽马射线探测器技术的开发，该技术有可能超越现有技术，并为多个行业和领域带来好处。
