AbstraktAbstract

The principle of this system is based on the use of a collimated parallel X-ray beam with a line profile, which delivers a defined charge at a specific location in 3D in the sensor. The beam can be sent onto the pixelated sensor at a low angle, which allows determining, for a given angle and detector position, the depth of interaction for each pixel. Shifting the detector along the axis perpendicular to the plane of the beam we can obtain a map of the detector response which is in 3D-i.e. both across the sensor plane and along its depth.
