Technical note / X-ray detectors
Detectors for X-ray applications span a broad range including a-Si detectors, single crystal detectors, and compound detectors. There are many kinds of detectors made especially of Si single crystals.
Types of X-ray Detectors - IIT
NaI(Tl), Yttrium Aluminum Perovskite (YAP) or plastic which, absorb x-rays and uoresce in the visible spectrum. Light strikes a thin photocathode which emits electrons into the vacuum portion of a photomultiplier tube. Photoelectrons are accelerated in steps, striking dynodes and becoming ampli ed. Useful for photon counting experiments
X-Ray Detectors - University of Illinois Urbana-Champaign
The usefulness of semiconductors as radiation detectors stems from the special properties created at a junction where n- and p- type semiconductors are brought into good thermodynamic contact.
Properties of X-rays - web.stanford.edu
X-ray Detectors Linearity – the ability of the detector to provide an output that is in direct proportion to the intensity of the x-ray beam (number of x-ray photons entering the detector).
X-Ray Data Booklet Section 4.5 X-RAY DETECTORS
photon detectors to give improved performance. Electrons generated from photon or charged-particle interactions in a gas (usually pure xenon or argon with 1% xenon) are accelerated in a high-field (~3 kV/cm) reg.
Semiconductor X-Ray Detectors
The book provides an up-to-date review of the principles, practical applications, and state of the art of semiconductor x-ray detectors. It describes many of the facets of x-ray detection and measurement using semiconductors, from manufacture to implementation.
HIGH PERFORMANCE X-Ray Detectors
Utilizing Teledyne DALSA’s proprietary CMOS active pixel technology, the Rad-icon family of real-time CMOS X-Ray detectors is the industry’s first to exceed the low-dose performance of image intensified detectors, setting new industry benchmarks in DQE, low power dissipation and radiation lifetime.
