Instrumentation Division Seminar

"Development and characterization of a Soft X-Ray Imager detector"

Presented by Giovanni Pinaroli, Eletra, Synchrotron Trieste, Italy

Tuesday, October 16, 2018, 1:00 pm — Large Conference Room, Bldg. 535

New generation synchrotron radiation sources and free electron Lasers allow revolutionary science with EUV to X-ray photons; this research calls for innovative suitable photon imaging detectors. Most urgent requirements include high frame rates, very large dynamic range, single-photon counting capability with low probability of false positives, and megapixels detectors. The PERCIVAL project is a worldwide collaboration between many facilities targeted at the development of CMOS based detectors compatible with these features. Every stage of the development, from the fabrication technology to the control electronics, requires extraordinary efforts and new technological approaches. This work reports about first results using tests prototypes, TCAD simulations in order to better understand the physic of single pixel and system hardware development. A description of the final system and its first images will conclude this presentation.
