Description
Microstrip Metal Detectors (MMD) are discussed as detectors of radioactive ions, charged particles and X-ray beams. A nearly transparent sensor (~1 micron) makes MMD the thinnest detector ever made for the particles registration. Other advantages of the MMD such as high radiation tolerance (10-100 MGy); perfect spatial resolution (5 – 25 microns); unique, well advanced production technology are discussed too.
MMD applications:
-RIB profile monitoring
-Detectors at the focal plane of mass-spectrometers and electron microscopes
-Imaging sensors for X-ray and charged particle applications
-Precise dose distribution measurements for micro-biology, medicine etc.
Currently available Microstrip Metal Detector (a row of 1024 nickel strips (2 micron thick, 40 micron width, 60 micron pitch) read-out via thin polyimide cable by 128-channel ASIC preamplifiers VA_SCM3) is characterized as a device for the RIB diagnostics.
