X-ray sensing pickup tube

Description

An X-ray sensing pickup tube free of white defects in the scanning area has been developed, and its characteristics have been evaluated. This pickup tube functions over a wide X-ray energy range, from 7 to 40 keV. The maximum spectral sensitivity, observed at a 20 keV photon energy, is 6 x 10-17 A/(photons/s). The limiting resolution is about 8 μm. A preliminary study for monochromatic X-ray microradiography has also been performed. (author)
