Charge splitting among anodes of a CdZnTe strip detector

We have studied charge splitting among the anodes of a CdZnTe (CZT) strip detector using a 30 micrometer collimated X-ray beam. The results indicate that charge splitting is a consequence of photoelectron range and diffusion. We also studied charge loss to the inter-anode regions. We showed that the charge loss increases as depth of interaction increases for interactions occurring above the inter-anode region.
