Article Synopsis
- The Adaptive Gain Integrating Pixel Detector (AGIPD) is a specialized X-ray imager created for the European X-ray Free-Electron Laser (XFEL), featuring a unique design that enhances its sensitivity and performance.
- It incorporates an adaptive gain amplifier for each pixel, allowing it to achieve exceptionally low noise levels and a wide dynamic range when detecting X-ray photons.
- Since its installation in August 2017, AGIPD has been successfully used in experiments at the XFEL facility, demonstrating its capability to capture high-speed images in a burst mode while matching the facility's frame rate.
