Detector development at PSI

Paul Scherrer Institute (PSI)
Abstrakt:
The Paul Scherrer Institute (PSI,) Switzerland's largest research institution for natural sciences and engineering, is home to several large-scale research facilities such as the Swiss Light Source (SLS) and the Swiss Free Electron Laser (SwissFEL).
The Photon Science Detector Group at PSI has a long history of developing X-ray detectors and was pioneering the work on single photon counting for protein crystallography with the PILATUS detector, later commercialized by the spin-of company DECTRIS.
This seminar will provide an overview of the different detectors that the group develops: both single photon counting and charge integrating, both strips and pixels. We explore a few of their applications and touch several challenges such as improving count rate, detecting low energy X-rays and the huge amount of data generated by the next generation detectors. Finally, we will also see how hybrid detectors can be used for electron diffraction experiments.
Seminář se koná v úterý 21. ledna ve 14:00
v zasedací místnosti ÚTEF ČVUT, Praha 1, Husova 240/5.
