lithium-drifted germanium crystal [′lith·ē·əm ¦drif·təd jər′mā·nē·əm ′krist·əl]

(electronics)

A high-resolution junction detector, used especially for more penetrating gamma-radiation and higher-energy electrons, produced by drifting lithium ions through a germanium crystal to produce an intrinsic region where impurity-based carrier generation centers are deactivated, sandwiched between aplayer and annlayer.
