Abstract
This article reports on the results of an investigation of the spectrometric characteristics of uncooled semiconductor detectors on the basis of mercuric iodide. We determined the limitations which are imposed upon the energy resolution by noise of various origins and by the inhomogeneity of the crystal in the spectrometry of quanta in the energy range of 10/sup 3/ keV. The energy resolution of the detector was determined from the response function as the width of the total absorption peak on half its full height.
