Si pad detectors with 256 separate cells with routing of each pad to external bonding pads for connection with strip detector front-end chips have been developed. The principles of the detector layout and technology are described. These detectors are connected to low noise VA2 chips. The spatial and energy resolution are determined. Some possible applications are discussed.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
