A semiconductor detector is a type of radiation detector that uses semiconductor materials to detect and measure ionizing radiation, such as alpha particles, beta particles, gamma rays, and X-rays. These detectors operate based on the principle that when ionizing radiation interacts with the semiconductor material, it generates electron-hole pairs (electrons and the absence of electrons, which acts as positive charges).
