The detector response function is interpreted by making use of range distributions of mono-energetic electrons in matter and by assuming a linear energy loss along the range in the depleted layer of the detector. An analytical expression is given for pulse height distribution obtained in the surface barrier detector. A good agreement is observed between the experimental results and theoretical interpretation. © 2011 Akadémiai Kiadó, Budapest, Hungary.falseBeta particle | Detector response function | Energy distribution | Surface barrier detectorArticle10.1007/s10967-011-1198-410.1007/s10967-011-1198-42-s2.0-79961209794WOS:000293029200037923926289
