High resolution hard x-ray spectroscopy of femtosecond laser-produced plasmas with a CZT detector
We present measurement of characteristic Ka emission from Mo, Ag, and La targets irradiated by a 60 fs, 600 mJ, 10 Hz Ti:sapphire laser pulse at 10– 10 W/cm. These x-ray emissions can potentially be used in applications from laser-based hard x-ray sources to x-ray mammography so detailed knowledge of the spectra is required to assess imaging of the figure of merit. We show here that high resolv...
متن کاملDesign and Testing of a Prototype Pixellated CZT Detector and Shield for Hard X-Ray Astronomy
We report on the design and laboratory testing of a prototype imaging CZT detector intended for balloon flight testing in April 2000. The detector tests several key techniques needed for the construction of large-area CZT arrays, as required for proposed hard X-ray astronomy missions. Two 10 mm × 10 mm × 5 mm CZT detectors, each with a 4 × 4 array of 1.9 mm pixels on a 2.5 mm pitch, will be mou...
متن کاملCdZnTe detector in diagnostic x-ray spectroscopy.
A method to utilize CdZnTe (CZT) detectors in diagnostic x-ray spectroscopy is described in this article. Spectral distortion due to transmission of primary x rays, the escape of cadmium- and tellurium-K fluorescent x rays, and tailing was severe in measured x-ray spectra. Therefore, correction for the distortion was performed with the stripping method using response functions. The response fun...
متن کاملCryogenic Detector Development at LLNL: Ultraviolet, X-ray, Gamma-ray and Biomolecule Spectroscopy
We are developing low-temperature detectors for optical, ultraviolet, X-ray, and gamma-ray spectroscopy, and for biomolecular mass spectrometry. We present here a survey of our recent work in developing these detectors and some of the first results in applying these detectors for materials analysis and biomolecular mass spectrometry. We have measured thin-film Nb/Al/Al2O3/Al/Nb superconducting ...
متن کاملConstruction and Testing of a Pixellated CZT Detector and Shield for a Hard X-ray Astronomy Balloon Flight
We report on the construction and laboratory testing of pixellated CZT detectors mounted in a flip-chip, tiled fashion and read out by an ASIC, as required for proposed hard X-ray astronomy missions. Two 10 mm × 10 mm × 5 mm detectors were fabricated, one out of standard eV Products high-pressure Bridgman CZT and one out of IMARAD horizontal Bridgman CZT. Each was fashioned with a 4 × 4 array o...
