Detector

Convert the transmitted beam to light and record it, on a long sample-to-detector propagation rail for phase contrast.

Enclosure: syrmep-experiment.

Note

The sample-to-detector distance binds LinearStage (the propagation rail, the 2-BM CameraZ precedent); the scintillator binds Scintillator and the area detectors bind Camera. SYRMEP runs more than one camera (an sCMOS and a CCD, plus a photon-counting detector for large-specimen CT); the default routine camera is DET-1.

Name Family PV Key specs Replaceable Status
PropagationRail LinearStage confirm: the sample-to-detector sliding rail (3-160 cm); handle not in public source (DET-2) range: 3-160 cm
the phase-contrast propagation rail (sample-to-detector 3-160 cm); the two-axis detector rail handles are DET-2
new confirm
Scintillator Scintillator confirm: the scintillator screen converting X-rays to visible light (published configs cite GGG:Eu); type, thickness, and handle are DET-3 the scintillator (published configs cite a GGG:Eu screen); the routine screen type and thickness are DET-3 new confirm
TomographyCamera Camera confirm: the 16-bit sCMOS detector (2048x2048 px, effective pixel 0.9-5.7 um via selectable optics; e.g. Hamamatsu Orca Flash); handle not in public source (DET-1) sensor: sCMOS, 2048x2048 px, 16-bit
effective pixel: 0.9-5.7 um (selectable optics)
the 16-bit sCMOS (2048x2048; published configs name a Hamamatsu Orca Flash); whether this or the CCD is the default routine-tomography camera, with its pixel size + FOV, is DET-1
