Fiber Optic based readout for BTeV’s Pixel Detector
نویسندگان
چکیده
The current paper describes the design of Fiber Optics Links for BTeV’s Pixel Detector readout. BTeV pixel detectors chips will be located as close as 6mm from the accelerator’s beam into the vacuum pipe. The readout electronics will be located at about 6cm from the beam, imposing strong constrains regarding radiation, mass, power dissipation, and size. The current development is the first prototype designed to initialize, control and readout pixel detector chips using optical links. Results of link performance are shown. The current development is designed in two boards, which will become the major parts of a test stand for pixel detector bench and beam tests.

Development of a new EM-CCD based X-ray detector for synchrotron applications
We have developed and successfully demonstrated a high speed, low noise camera system for crystallography and X-ray imaging applications. By coupling an EM-CCD to a 3:1 fibre optic taper and a CsI(Tl) scintillator it was possible to detect hard X-rays. This novel approach to hard X-ray imaging takes advantage of the low equivalent readout noise performance at high pixel readout frequencies of E...

In this paper, the set-up of a multi-mode fiber optic sensor for measuring glucose in aqueous solutions is investigated and evaluated. The basis of this sensor is based on the Fresnel Reflection. In this setup, a helium-neon laser is used as a light source, a fiber optic probe, photocell as detector and a digital multimeter. The statistical analysis of the recorded data shows a highly linear be...
متن کاملFibre Optical Interface Based FOPI RPC Acquisition System
A GTB [1] to fibre optic interface "GTBLWL" has been developed for the FOPI RPC detector control and readout and is usable for other GTB data transmissions. The main motivation for this development was galvanic separation of the detectors from readout and trigger electronics to reduce the noise level at the detector. Another advantage of optical data transmission is insensitivity to external in...
متن کاملBroadband extreme-ultraviolet survey spectrometer for short-time-scale experiments.
A fast and inexpensive spectrometer system has been developed to record extreme-UV impurity spectra in a magnetic-fusion-research device. To simplify the vacuum system, light is passed out of the spectrometer's vacuum to the detector with a sodium-salicylate-coated, fiber-optic coupler. This coupler is positioned so that the focal field is nearly flat over its aperture. The system's detector is...
