Under the condition of high counting rate, the phenomenon of nuclear pulse signal pile-up using a single exponential impulse shaping method is still very serious, and leads to a severe loss in counting rate. A real nuclear pulse signal can be expressed as a dual-exponential decay function with a certain rising edge. This paper proposes a new dual-exponential impulse shaping method and shows its deployment in hardware to test its performance. The signal of a high-performance silicon drift detector under high counting rate in an X-ray fluorescence spectrometer is obtained. The result of the experiment shows that the new method can effectively shorten the dead-time caused by nuclear signal pile-up and correct the counting rate.
在高计数率条件下,采用单指数脉冲成形方法时核脉冲信号堆积现象仍然非常严重,并导致计数率严重损失。实际的核脉冲信号可表示为具有一定上升沿的双指数衰减函数。本文提出了一种新的双指数脉冲成形方法,并展示了其硬件实现以测试其性能。获得了X射线荧光光谱仪中高性能硅漂移探测器在高计数率下的信号。实验结果表明,新方法可以有效缩短核信号堆积引起的死时间并校正计数率。
