Photonic Detectors
Contact usX-RAY integrated circuits for direct and indirect photon sensing detectors
X-RAY photon sensing panels make use of the same amorphous silicon (aSi) substrate as the one used in TFT-LCD technologies for indirect sensing while the direct sensing uses the same crystal silicon (Si) as standard CMOS integrated circuits and by analogy to LCD micro-displays. The fundamental difference is in the functionality where the LCD panels are emitting visible light through the TFT pixels while the X-RAY panels are absorbing X-Ray photons through the TFT pixels. The control and detection of the number of photons absorbed in each pixel is one of the main function of our X-RAY chipset.
