Gamma ray detection performance of newly developed MAPD-3NM-II photosensor with LaBr(Ce) crystal.

This paper presents the gamma-ray detection performance of the newly developed MAPD-3NM-II type SiPM sensor array (4 [Formula: see text] 4) with [Formula: see text](Ce) scintillator. The gamma-ray spectra of various sources have been measured in the energy range from 26 keV up to 1332 keV. The newly developed array based on MAPD-3NM-II sensors proved [Formula: see text] 22% enhancement in energy resolution in comparison to the former MAPD-3NM-I based array.

A Geiger-mode avalanche photodiode array for X-ray photon correlation spectroscopy.

X-ray photon correlation spectroscopy (XPCS) provides an opportunity to study the dynamics of systems by measuring the temporal fluctuations in a far-field diffraction pattern. A two-dimensional detector system has been developed to investigate fluctuations in the frequency range of several Hz to kHz. The X-ray detector system consists of a thin 100 microm scintillation crystal coupled to a Geiger-mode avalanche photodiode array.
