I'm looking for a good introductory text on solid state devices for particle detection.
Thanks a lot.

In Gilmore's book: http://www.amazon.com/Single-Particle-Detection-Measurement-Gilmore/dp/0850667550 Chapter 5 is on solid state ionization and it's use in detectors. That was hanging around the lab when I was working in particle physics. I'd give that one a try. It's a bit old these days but the principles are there. |

I found this book pretty useful during studies: Detectors for particle radiation (Konrad Kleinknecht) It covers a lot of different detector types, and also has some chapters on solid state detectors, from the basics (particles in matter, semiconductors) up to how to build a detector out of it, if I recall correctly. |
