MAJORANA Collaboration's Experience with Germanium Detectors
The goal of the \textsc{Majorana} \textsc{Demonstrator} project is to search for 0$νββ$ decay in $^{76}\mathrm{Ge}$. Of all candidate isotopes for 0$νββ$, $^{76}\mathrm{Ge}$ has some of the most favorable characteristics. Germanium detectors are a well established technology, and in searches for 0$νββ$, the high purity germanium crystal acts simultaneously as source and detector. Furthermore, p-type germanium detectors provide excellent energy resolution and a specially designed point contact geometry allows for sensitive pulse shape discrimination. This paper will summarize the experiences the \textsc{Majorana} collaboration made with enriched germanium detectors manufactured by ORTEC$^{\circledR}$. The process from production, to characterization and integration in \textsc{Majorana} mounting structure will be described. A summary of the performance of all enriched germanium detectors will be given.
