Resumo

Fluctuations of charge induced by charge carriers on the detector electrodes make a significant contribution to the energy resolution of ionization detectors, namely, semiconductor detectors and gas and liquid ionization chambers. These fluctuations are determined by the capture of charge carriers, as they drift in the bulk of the detector under the action of an electric field, by traps. In this study, we give a correct mathematical description of charge induction on electrodes of an ionization detector for an arbitrary electric field distribution in the detector with consideration of charge carrier capture by traps. The characteristic function obtained in this study yields the general expression for the distribution function of the charge induced on the detector electrodes. The formulas obtained in this study are useful for analysis of the influence of charge carrier transport on energy resolution of ionization detectors.
