Comparison between APDs and PIN DiodesShaping Time
3 µs and 6 µs are good trade off for both
Pin Diode are too noisy, so that they can not resolve energies below 400 keV
Pin Diode has worse energy resolution, but similar trend for energies above 500keV

Conclusions
The calibration showed that the energy resolution value of 4.5 % is repeated with different electronicchains
The enery resolution of CsI(Na) and BGO are bad because its bad quality
The used window for the frustum like crystals produced an energy resolution worsening
There is difference of aproximately 4 % in the energy resolution between Face A and B in frustum likecrystals
The Filter and Preamplifier made by GSI for Pin Diodes don’t offer an energy resolution comparable toCanberra Preamplifier
Pin Diodes don’t need High Voltage, are stable between 40 and 80 V, have an energy resolution of 6.5% for 662 keV photons
Pin Diodes has worse energy resolution for low shaping times and for incident energies below 400 keVthan APDs.
LaBr3 produces so many light in a so short time that saturates common PMT working at tipical voltagevalues
Working at linear gain, the best energy resolution obtained for LaBr3 was 4.11 % for XP1918 PMT fromPhotonis
The best energy resolution for LaCl3 was 5.78 % for the R329 PMT from Hamamatsu

Albert Einstein
Put your hand on a hot stovefor a minute,
and it seems like an hour.Sit with a pretty girl
for an hour,and it seems like a minute.
That’s relativity.
