Development and characterization of a fast and low noise readout for the next generation X-ray CCDs

Tanmoy Chattopadhyay, Sven Herrmann, Peter Orel +8

The broad energy response, low electronic read noise, and good energy resolution have made X-ray Charge-Coupled Devices (CCDs) an obvious choice for developing soft X-ray astronomi…

Measurement and simulation of charge diffusion in a small-pixel charge-coupled device

Beverly J. LaMarr, Gregory Y. Prigozhin, Eric D. Miller +9

Future high-resolution imaging X-ray observatories may require detectors with both fine spatial resolution and high quantum efficiency at relatively high X-ray energies (>5keV). A…

First results on SiSeRO (Single electron Sensitive Read Out) devices -- a new X-ray detector for scientific instrumentation

Tanmoy Chattopadhyay, Sven Herrmann, Barry Burke +11

We present an evaluation of a novel on-chip charge detector, called the Single electron Sensitive Read Out (SiSeRO), for charge-coupled device (CCD) image sensor applications. It u…

Tiny-box: A tool for the versatile development and characterization of low noise fast X-ray imaging detectors

Tanmoy Chattopadhyay, Sven Herrmann, Steven Allen +8

X-ray Charge Coupled Devices (CCDs) have been the workhorse for soft X-ray astronomical instruments for the past quarter century. They provide broad energy response, extremely low…

The Orthogonal Transfer CCD

John L. Tonry, Barry E. Burke, Paul L. Schechter

We have designed and built a new type of CCD that we call an orthogonal transfer CCD (OTCCD), which permits parallel clocking horizontally as well as vertically. The device has bee…
