Abstract
AbstractPosition sensitive detectors provide efficient X-ray detection over large solid angles; this capability has revolutionized X-ray diffractometry by reducing data collection time. This paper describes testing of a new single-axis position sensitive detector designed to locate 0.6-2 Angstrom X-rays. Dead time, quantum efficiency, energy resolution, and spatial resolution were measured. Standard powder diffraction patterns were observed with the detector, and data sets are presented. The impact of detector performance parameters on diffraction experiments is discussed.
