Abstract
A simple prototype system for static two-dimensional soft X-ray imaging using silicon microstrip detectors irradiated atnormalincidenceispresented.Radiationsensorsconsistofsingle-sidedsilicondetectorsmadefrom300mmthick wafers, read by RX64 ASICs. Data acquisition and control is performed by a Windows PC workstation running dedicated LabVIEW routines, connected to the sensors through a PCI-DIO-96 interface. Two-dimensional images are obtained by scanning a lead collimator with a thin slit perpendicular to the strip axis, along the whole detector size; the several strip profiles (slices) taken at each position are then put together to form a planar image.I documenti in SFERA sono protetti da copyright e tutti i diritti sono riservati, salvo diversa indicazione.
