New sensor module with CsI and GOS scintillator

Sep. 17 , 2019

16HCD/16LCDA is a front side illuminated type 16 element photodiode array coupled with high performance scintillators, such as CsI(Tl) and GOS ceramic. The silicon photo-detector has ultra low dark current, low terminal capacitance and high sensitivity covered a broad spectrum, and it is designed directly for single or dual energy imaging, that two of the photodiode array, each with a GOS ceramic and CsI(Tl) scintillator, are combined in an upper and lower two layer format, which are for the detection of high energy X-rays and low energy X-rays simultaneously, and suitable for various kind of application especially in X-ray security inspection.
