Gold electroless contacts are commonly used for the preparation of CdZnTe-based detectors. In this work it is shown that it is possible to deposit electroless patterned contacts on CdZnTe detectors without the use of photolithography by means of the scanning pipette technique. The technique is based on the delivery of gold chloride solution by means of a pipette moved by micro-controlled motors. The obtained detectors show optimal current-voltage characteristics and good spectroscopic response.

Abstract

Gold electroless contacts are commonly used for the preparation of CdZnTe-based detectors. In this work it is shown that it is possible to deposit electroless patterned contacts on CdZnTe detectors without the use of photolithography by means of the scanning pipette technique. The technique is based on the delivery of gold chloride solution by means of a pipette moved by micro-controlled motors. The obtained detectors show optimal current-voltage characteristics and good spectroscopic response.
