Scientific paper

CdZnTe is a room temperature semiconductor detector which has undergone rapid development in recent years. It has a number of desirable features for 2-100 keV X-ray astronomy including: room temperature operation, fine spatial resolution, good energy resolution, and large area. We have characterized the areal uniformity and linearity of several single element CdZnTe detectors. These detectors show a significant non-linear response near their edges which will be presented and discussed. The energy response obtained from a calibration of one of these detectors at the National Synchrotron Light Source will also be presented.
