A fast, direct x-ray detection charge-coupled device.
A charge-coupled device (CCD) capable of 200 Mpixels/s readout has been designed and fabricated on thick, high-resistivity silicon. The CCDs, up to 600 microm thick, are fully depleted, ensuring good infrared to x-ray detection efficiency, together with a small point spread function. High readout speed, with good analog performance, is obtained by the use of a large number of parallel output po...
متن کاملCharge-coupled device area x-ray detectors
Charge-coupled device ~CCD! area x-ray detector technology is reviewed. CCD detectors consist of a serial chain of signal components, such as phosphors, fiber optics or lenses, image intensifiers and the CCD which serve to convert the x-ray energy to light or electron-hole pairs and to record the spatially resolved image. The various combinations of components that have been used to make CCD de...
متن کاملDetection of Minimum-Ionizing Particles and Nuclear Counter Effect with Pure BGO and BSO Crystals with Photodiode Read-out
Long BGO (Bi4Ge3O12) and BSO (Bi4Si3O12) crystals coupled with silicon photodiodes have been used to detect minimumionizing particles(MIP). With a low noise amplifier customized for this purpose, the crystals can detect MIPs with an excellent signalto-noise ratio. The nuclear counter effect is also clearly observed and measured. Effect of full and partial wrapping of a reflector around the crys...
متن کاملDirect detection of nucleic acid hybridization on the surface of a charge coupled device.
A method is described for the detection of DNA hybrids formed on a solid support, based upon the pairing of oligonucleotide chemistry and the technologies of electronic microdevice design. Surface matrices have been created in which oligonucleotide probes are covalently linked to a thin SiO2 film. 32P labeled target nucleic acid is then hybridized to this probe matrix under conditions of high s...
متن کاملTwo-channel direct-detection Doppler lidar employing a charge-coupled device as a detector.
A direct-detection Doppler lidar system is demonstrated that uses a CCD as a detector for the first time to our knowledge. The ability to use this linear device with the circular output from a Fabry-Perot etalon comes from use of a circle-to-line converter [Appl. Opt. 29, 1482 (1990)]. In addition to the gains in quantum efficiency obtained through use of this detector, the lidar system describ...
