Semiconductor detectors are routinely used in [gamma]-ray and x-ray spectrometry. Their characteriza-
tion is crucial in order to perform quantitative analysis. Three steps are needed to this end: energy
and FWHM calibration and determination of the full-energy peak effciency. In this TFG we have
performed these steps for a HPGe detector. We confirmed the very high linearity, excellent energy
resolution and high effciency of the studied spectrometer.
