XRISM is the seventh Japanese X-ray astronomical satellite planned to be launched in early 2020's, and carries an X-ray charge-coupled device (CCD) camera as one of the two focal plane detectors. The camera has four P-channel back-illuminated CCDs with an imaging area size of 31 mm $\times$ 31 mm arranged in a 2$\times$2 array. The charge transfer inefficiency (CTI) is defined as a fraction of...

FORCE is a space-based astronomy mission for an X-ray imaging spectroscopy in an energy range of 1–80 keV. The Wideband Hybrid X-ray Imager (WHXI), which is the main focal plane detector, will use a hybrid semiconductor imager stack composed of silicon and cadmium telluride (CdTe). The silicon imager, for which we will adopt a certain type of the XRPIX series, will be based on the...

Mr Shunsaku Nagasawa (Kavli IPMU)15/12/2019, 15:00Applications in biology, medicine, medical equipmentsORAL
Semiconductor detectors with high energy efficiency in the range at several 10 keV are now playing an important role in various research fields; from X-ray astronomy to non-destructive material analysis and in vivo medical imaging. We have been working on a double-sided strip detector based on high energy resolution Cadmium Telluride (CdTe) diode.

The synchrotron radiation facility provides monochromatic X-rays but the beams have higher harmonics contamination. We proposed multi-energy X-ray diffractions using the primary and higher harmonics beams. This method could acquire larger Q information with the same exposure time of monochromatic beam measurement. Furthermore, the white X-ray Laue diffraction could determine the lattice...
