  2. ISS specs and directions • Develop a solid state 64 pixel probe for g-ray imaging. • Energy of the g photon : 140 keV. • Event rate: 4 kHz. • Probe area: 22mm x 22mm. • Spatial res.: <2 mm. Workshop on the Applications of Compton Camera - Baia delle Zagare, 5-7 settembre 2002.

  3. Si detectors • Avalanche photo detectors; • good energy res. : ENC/M; • a portion of the leak. curr is increased by M; • high sensitivity of M to Vsupply and to T (2.5% /°C): diff. bias requirements; • poor linearity for charge measurement appl. Workshop on the Applications of Compton Camera - Baia delle Zagare, 5-7 settembre 2002.

  4. Si detectors • Silicon drift detectors; • good energy res. (low anode cap.); • good linearity (depending on det. design); • suitable for probe application; • leakage current (cooling); • double face processing. Workshop on the Applications of Compton Camera - Baia delle Zagare, 5-7 settembre 2002.

  5. Si detectors • PIN diodes; • acceptable energy res. (dep. on Ileak and CD.); • exc. linearity; • low fab. cost; • active pixels; • simple readout scheme. Workshop on the Applications of Compton Camera - Baia delle Zagare, 5-7 settembre 2002.
