论文摘要
我们展示了为改进硅传感器技术而进行的开发,用于使用混合X射线探测器检测软X射线。需要优化入口窗口技术以提高量子效率。 LGAD技术可用于扩增X射线产生的信号并增加信号噪声比率,从而使软X射线能量范围内的单个光子分辨率成为可能。在本文中,我们报告了从LGAD传感器生产中获得的首次结果,并具有优化的薄入口窗口。从测量值中证明了对软X射线的单光子检测至452〜EV,其信噪比优于20。
We show the developments carried out to improve the silicon sensor technology for the detection of soft X-rays with hybrid X-ray detectors. An optimization of the entrance window technology is required to improve the quantum efficiency. The LGAD technology can be used to amplify the signal generated by the X-rays and to increase the signal-to-noise ratio, making single photon resolution in the soft X-ray energy range possible. In this paper, we report first results obtained from an LGAD sensor production with an optimized thin entrance window. Single photon detection of soft X-rays down to 452~eV has been demonstrated from measurements, with a signal-to-noise ratio better than 20.
