IEEE 1160-1993

This standard applies to the measurement of bulk properties of high-purity germanium as they relate to the fabrication and performance of germanium detectors for gamma rays and x rays. Such germanium is monocrystalline and has a net concentration of fewer than 1011 electrically active impurity centers per cm3, usually on the order of 1010 cm¿¿¿3. Test and measurement procedures for fabricated germanium detectors are given in IEEE Std 325-1986 and IEEE Std 759-19
