Extract

Many of the scientific programs proposed for implementation at existing and future synchrotron radiation sources involve measurement of the spatial distribution of transmitted or diffracted x-ray beams. The design of a general purpose position-sensitive detector for use in such experiments must address several conflicting requirements. Ideally, such a detector would meet the following criteria: high detection efficiency over a wide energy range, large dynamic range in measured photon intensities and response to a wide range of measurement intervals. Existing detector systems only partially meet these requirements, although much work has gone into improving the current technology.
