Abstract
The open-source software packageSolidStateDetectors.jl to calculate the fields and simulate the drifts of charge carriers in solid state detectors, especially in large volume high-purity germanium detectors, together with the corresponding pulses, is introduced. The package can perform all calculations in full 3D while it can also make use of detector symmetries. The effect of the surroundings of a detector can also be studied. The package is programmed in the user friendly and performance oriented language julia, such that 3D field calculations and drift simulations can be executed efficiently and in parallel. The package was developed for high-purity germanium detectors, but it can be adjusted by the user to other types of semiconductors. The verification of the package is shown for an n-type segmented point-contact germanium detector. Additional features of SolidStateDetectors.jl, which are under development are listed.
