    A new spectroscopic imager for X-rays from 0.5 keV to 150 keV combining a pnCCD and a columnar CsI(Tl) scintillator
    (Iop Publishing Ltd, 2017) Schlosser, Dieter Michael; Hartmann, Robert; Kalok, D.; Bechteler, A.; Abboud, Ali; Shokr, Mohammad Mahdi; Strüeder, Lothar; Çonka Yıldız, Tuba
    By combining a low noise fully depleted pnCCD detector with a columnar CsI(Tl) scintillator an energy dispersive spatial resolving detector can be realized with a high quantum efficiency in the range from below 0.5 keV to above 150 keV. The used scintillator system increases the pulse height of gamma-rays converted in the CsI(Tl), due to focusing properties of the columnar scintillator structure by reducing the event size in indirect detection mode (conversion in the scintillator). In case of direct detection (conversion in the silicon of the pnCCD) the relative energy resolution is 0.7% at 122 keV (FWHM = 850 eV) and the spatial resolution is less than 75 mu m. In case of indirect detection the relative energy resolution, integrated over all event sizes is about 9% at 122 keV with an expected spatial precision of below 75 mu m.

    Application of a pnCCD for energy-dispersive Lauc diffraction with ultra-hard X-rays
    (Int Union Crystallography, 2015) Send, Sebastian; Abboud, Ali; Wiesner, Nadja; Shokr, Mohammad Mahdi; Çonka Yıldız, Tuba; Klaus, Manuela; Hartmann, Robert
    In this work the spectroscopic performance of a pnCCD detector in the ultra-hard energy range between 40 and 140 keV is tested by means of an energy-dispersive Laue diffraction experiment on a GaAs crystal. About 100 Bragg peaks were collected in a single-shot exposure of the arbitrarily oriented sample to white synchrotron radiation provided by a wiggler at BESSY II and resolved in a large reciprocal-space volume. The positions and energies of individual Laue spots could be determined with a spatial accuracy of less than one pixel and a relative energy resolution better than 1%. In this way the unit-cell parameters of GaAs were extracted with an accuracy of 0.5%, allowing for a complete indexing of the recorded Laue pattern. Despite the low quantum efficiency of the pnCCD (below 7%), experimental structure factors could be obtained from the three-dimensional data sets, taking into account photoelectric absorption as well as Compton scattering processes inside the detector. The agreement between measured and theoretical kinematical structure factors calculated from the known crystal structure is of the order of 10%. The results of this experiment demonstrate the potential of pnCCD detectors for applications in X-ray structure analysis using the complete energy spectrum of synchrotron radiation.

    Direct and indirect signal detection of 122 keV photons with a novel detector combining a pnCCD and a CsI(T1) scintillator
    (Elsevier, 2016) Schlosser, Dieter Michael; Huth, M.; Hartmann, Robert; Abboud, Ali; Send, Sebastian; Çonka Yıldız, Tuba; Strüeder, Lothar
    By combining a low noise fully depleted pnCCD detector with a CsI(TI) scintillator, an energy-dispersive area detector can be realized with a high quantum efficiency (QE) in the range from below 1 keV to above 100 keV. In direct detection mode the pnCCD exhibits a relative energy resolution of 1% at 122 keV and spatial resolution of less than 75 mu m, the pixel size of the pnCCD. In the indirect detection mode, i.e. conversion of the incoming X-rays in the scintillator, the measured energy resolution was about 9-13% at 122 keV, depending on the depth of interaction in the scintillator, while the position resolution, extracted with the help of simulations, was 30 mu m only. We show simulated data for incident photons of 122 keV and compare the various interaction processes and relevant physical parameters to experimental results obtained with a radioactive Co-57 source.
