Abstract Monte Carlo simulation of alpha spectra obtained with semiconductor detectors in low-geometry has been developed. The proposed method reproduces adequately experimental spectra of alpha emitters by taking into account the energy losses and trajectory changes of alpha particles as consequences of their interactions in the source, backing and detector.
