    Soft X-ray Detector Workshop

    New X-Ray pixel detectors are required to satisfy the challenging requirements from X-ray Free Electron Laser (XFEL) sources, such as high frame rates, wide dynamic range, and low noise for single-photon sensitivity.
    The European XFEL is capable of emitting ultrashort X-ray flashes 27,000 times per second, delivering brilliance that is a billion times greater than conventional X-ray...

    Soft X-ray Detector Workshop

    The DSSC camera system was developed for soft X-ray photon science applications in the 0.25–6 keV energy range at the European XFEL in Germany. Two sensor implementations are available: a 1-megapixel camera with MiniSDD sensors, delivered in 2019, and a recently completed version equipped with DEPFET active pixels. The first DSSC camera, based on MiniSDD pixels, has been successfully used for...

    Soft X-ray Detector Workshop

    The Spectroscopy and Coherent Scattering (SCS) instrument at the European XFEL is equipped with the Heisenberg-RIXS spectrometer (hRIXS), capable of performing resonant inelastic X-ray scattering (RIXS) measurements in the time domain, with time and energy resolution approaching the Heisenberg limit imposed by the uncertainty relations [1, 2]. The unique pulse delivery structure of the...

    Detector Systems
    Soft X-ray Detector Workshop

    The FSP camera System is the first 36 µm, 1 MPixel pnCCD camera system developed for use in X-ray microscopes.
    The camera system is a based on a fully depleted, backside illuminated 1 k x 2 k pnCCD. Standard use case is the split frame, framestore operation providing a field of view of 1k x 1k pixels of 36 µm size. Depending on the target noise requirement, framerates of 400 Hz can be...
