AdvaPIX TPX3

Original language description

The Timepix3 based detector AdvaPIX TP3 was developed integrating Timepix3 chip with sensor and readout electronics AdvaDAQ into one single device with optimized power voltage generation circuits and temperature balancing of the chip thanks to better heat dissipation. The stability of the Timepix3 chip was significantly improved. This way the electronic noise is decreased by about 30%. As a consequence of this improvement the minimal detectable energy of X-ray photons (or other ionizing particles) was decreased to 1.3 keV (the best Timepix3 with Silicon sensor) from original 2.0 keV. The AdvaPIX TPX3 modules were designed with special emphasis to performance and versatility which is often required in a scientific experimental work. They contain CERN detector Timepix3 for particle tracking and imaging with Si or CdTe sensor. The AdvaPIX TPX3 modules can be used in different configurations: telescope of several layers for better particle tracking and/or side-by-side for larger area coverage. Each module contains one Timepix3 device with fast sparse data readout to acquire up to 40 Mhits per second. A separate USB 3.0 channel for each module assures fast read-out of the whole modular system. The sensor type and thickness is of customer’s choice. The typical and intended applications of AdvaPIX TPX3 include: • Spectral X-ray and gamma ray imaging: X-ray fluorescence imaging, X-ray radiography (low flux), scintigraphy or SPECT, radiography with isotopes. • Energy dispersive XRD, SAXS or WAXS: Monochromatic X-ray source is NOT needed! Even high energy for thick samples is possible (e.g. 100 keV)! • Particle tracking and ion beam monitoring: detectors can be used for tracking and tagging of primary particles (e.g. ions) as well as secondary radiation (spallation, fragmentation, recoiled, bremsstrahlung, prompt/delayed decays, neutrons1 …). • Neutron imaging: The sensors can be adapted for neutron imaging by deposition of converter layers1. Recording shapes of individual hits together with advanced data processing allows increasing the spatial resolution in some applications to units of microns (gamma rays 80-500 keV) or even sub-micrometric level (for ions in MeV range).
