CdZnTe detector in diagnostic x-ray spectroscopy.
A method to utilize CdZnTe (CZT) detectors in diagnostic x-ray spectroscopy is described in this article. Spectral distortion due to transmission of primary x rays, the escape of cadmium- and tellurium-K fluorescent x rays, and tailing was severe in measured x-ray spectra. Therefore, correction for the distortion was performed with the stripping method using response functions. The response fun...
متن کاملImplementation of an X-ray radiation protective equipment inspection program.
In order to comply with the requirements established by healthcare organization accrediting agencies, radiation protective equipment (e.g., lead aprons, gloves, and collars) utilized by x-ray workers must be periodically evaluated for damage. The objective of such evaluations is to identify and remove from service equipment bearing large holes, tears, etc., that could compromise the safety of i...
متن کاملSimulation and Fabrication of Gated Silicon Drift X-Ray Detector Operated by Peltier Cooling
A proposed simply structured gated silicon (Si) drift X-ray detector operated using Peltier cooling and only a single high-voltage source is investigated. Because the device structure is much simpler than that of commercial Si drift detectors (SDDs), which require at least two high-voltage sources, the cost of the X-ray detection system can be reduced. The absorption of cadmium X-ray fluorescen...

متن کاملFast X-ray reflectivity measurements using an X-ray pixel area detector at the DiffAbs beamline, Synchrotron SOLEIL.
This paper describes a method for rapid measurements of the specular X-ray reflectivity signal using an area detector and a monochromatic, well collimated X-ray beam (divergence below 0.01°), combined with a continuous data acquisition mode during the angular movements of the sample and detector. In addition to the total integrated (and background-corrected) reflectivity signal, this approach y...
