Dr. Bellinger’s expertise in radiation detection comes from over 9 years of experience in the fields of semiconductor device theory and fabrication and radiation detector design, fabrication, and measurement. He manages graduate students in the design, fabrication and characterization of radiation detectors and systems at Kansas State University
(KSU) as an associate research faculty at the Semiconductor Materials and Radiological Technologies (SMART) Laboratory at KSU on many projects and has started Radiation Detection Technologies, Inc. (RDT), to commercialize novel radiation detectors developed at the SMART Laboratory. He is skilled at fabricating detectors from numerous types of semiconductors for specific radiation detection applications, such as, CdZnTe, HgI2, Si, and SiC, each with their own unique capabilities and properties for radiation detection. He holds the record for the highest thermal-neutron detection efficiency for a solid-state semiconductor neutron detector and has introduced novel manufacturing concepts for microstructured semiconductor neutron detectors (MSNDs). He has authored or co-authored over 46 publications on radiation detectors and has 5 US patents on detector designs with several radiation detector patents pending.
