Detector

The detectors for SRX's several techniques: the fluorescence spectrometer (XRF / XANES), the pixel detectors (diffraction / ptychography), the imaging camera, and the flux counters. PVs verified against startup/31-xspress3.py, 34-merlin.py, 35-dexela.py, 36-eiger.py, 30-scaler.py.

Enclosure: 5-ID-D.

Note

SRX's multi-technique nature shows in its detector set: which detector is read selects the technique (the EnergyDispersiveSpectrometer for XRF/XANES maps, a Camera pixel detector for diffraction, the PCO for full-field imaging). All reuse existing families. Which are live vs legacy is a staff question (CAM-1).

Name Family PV Key specs Replaceable Status
FluorescenceSpectrometer EnergyDispersiveSpectrometer XF:05IDD-ES{Xsp:3}: Xspress3 energy-dispersive fluorescence detector for XRF mapping, XANES, and XRF-tomography; presents the Sensor Role. Element count / vendor pending (DET-1). confirm
MerlinDetector Camera XF:05IDD-ES{Merlin:1} Merlin pixel detector for diffraction / ptychography; reuses Camera. confirm
DexelaDetector Camera XF:05IDD-ES{Dexela:1} Dexela flat-panel detector for wide-field diffraction; reuses Camera. confirm
EigerDetector Camera XF:05IDD-ES{Det:Eig1M} Eiger 1M pixel detector; reuses Camera. confirm
ImagingCamera Camera XF:05IDD-ES{Det:3-Ax: PCO Edge full-field imaging camera on the downstream gantry (pcoedge); reuses Camera. A Point Grey visible-light camera (XF:05ID1-ES{PG-Cam:1}) serves on-axis viewing. confirm
FluxCounter FluxMonitor XF:05IDD-ES:1{Sclr:1} Scaler-counted ion-chamber flux channels (I0 and others) for normalization; binds the FluxMonitor family. Channel map pending (DIAG-1). confirm
