MAXIPIX, a fast readout photon-counting X-ray area detector for synchrotron applications
A 2D photon-counting X-ray detector system with 1.4 kHz frame rate and 55 μm spatial resolution has been developed and commissionned on ESRF beamlines. The system called MAXIPIX (Multichip Area X-ray detector based on a photon-counting PIXel array) consists of a detector module implementing up to five MEDIPIX-2 or TIMEPIX photon-counting readout chips, a custom readout interface board and a Lin...
متن کاملOPTIMA: A Photon Counting High-Speed Photometer
OPTIMA is a small, versatile high-speed photometer which is primarily intended for time resolved observations of young high energy pulsars at optical wavelengths. The detector system consists of eight fiber fed photon counters based on avalanche photodiodes, a GPS timing receiver, an integrating CCD camera to ensure the correct pointing of the telescope and a computerized control unit. Since Ja...
متن کاملIndirectly illuminated X-ray area detector for X-ray photon correlation spectroscopy.
An indirectly illuminated X-ray area detector is employed for X-ray photon correlation spectroscopy (XPCS). The detector consists of a phosphor screen, an image intensifier (microchannel plate), a coupling lens and either a CCD or CMOS image sensor. By changing the gain of the image intensifier, both photon-counting and integrating measurements can be performed. Speckle patterns with a high sig...
متن کاملPicosecond time-resolved laser pump/X-ray probe experiments using a gated single-photon-counting area detector.
The recent developments in X-ray detectors have opened new possibilities in the area of time-resolved pump/probe X-ray experiments; this article presents the novel use of a PILATUS detector to achieve X-ray pulse duration limited time-resolution at the Advanced Photon Source (APS), USA. The capability of the gated PILATUS detector to selectively detect the signal from a given X-ray pulse in 24 ...
متن کاملX-ray Imaging Using a Hybrid Photon Counting GaAs Pixel Detector
The performance of hybrid GaAs pixel detectors as X-ray imaging sensors were investigated at room temperature. These hybrids consist of 300 μm thick GaAs pixel detectors, flip-chip bonded to a CMOS Single Photon Counting Chip (PCC). This chip consists of a matrix of 64 x 64 identical square pixels (170 μm x 170 μm) and covers a total area of 1.2 cm. The electronics in each cell comprises a prea...
