X-ray spectral performance of the Sony IMX290 CMOS sensor near Fano limit after a per-pixel gain calibration
Benjamin Schneider, Gregory Prigozhin, Richard F. Foster +10
The advent of back-illuminated complementary metal-oxide-semiconductor (CMOS) sensors and their well-known advantages over charge-coupled devices (CCDs) make them an attractive tec…
Continued developments in X-ray speed reading: fast, low noise readout for next-generation wide-field imagers
Sven Herrmann, Peter Orel, Tanmoy Chattopadhyay +12
Future strategic X-ray astronomy missions will require unprecedentedly sensitive wide-field imagers providing high frame rates, low readout noise and excellent soft energy response…
Demonstrating sub-electron noise performance in Single electron Sensitive Readout (SiSeRO) devices
Tanmoy Chattopadhyay, Sven Herrmann, Peter Orel +14
Single electron Sensitive Read Out (SiSeRO) is a novel on-chip charge detection technology that can, in principle, provide significantly greater responsivity and improved noise per…
Curved detectors for future X-ray astrophysics missions
Eric D. Miller, James A. Gregory, Marshall W. Bautz +17
Future X-ray astrophysics missions will survey large areas of the sky with unparalleled sensitivity, enabled by lightweight, high-resolution optics. These optics inherently produce…
