    Detectors for Neutron Facilities
    Plenary Talk

    We present novel thermal and fast neutron detector technologies that have been created at QMUL in collaboration with our industrial partners, AWE and Micron Semiconductor Ltd. These technologies enable the creation of large area thermal and fast neutron detector solutions using organic and inorganic semiconductors. We have demonstrated the ability to detect neutrons over the range of...

    Plenary Talk

    Position-sensitive neutron detectors combining spatial, temporal, and spectroscopic capabilities are increasingly demanded for neutron scattering instruments and time-of-flight (ToF) beamlines. We report on a compact neutron Anger camera designed as a proof-of-concept for large-area scintillation-based imaging systems.

    The detector employs a 1 mm thick GS20 lithium glass scintillator...

    Plenary Talk

    At PSI, we are developing inverse Low-Gain Avalanche Diode (iLGAD) sensors in collaboration with Fondazione Bruno Kessler (FBK) to extend the application of hybrid detectors to the soft X-ray range. iLGAD features an internal gain layer, which enables a significant increase in the signal-to-noise ratio (SNR) for soft X-ray detection. To account for the shallow absorption depth of low-energy...

    Plenary Talk

    The upgrade of photon light sources to diffraction-limited storage rings, alongside the demands of techniques such as Hyperspectral X-ray Tomography, requires spectroscopic X-ray imaging detectors capable of operating at significantly higher photon fluxes than previous generations permitted. HEXITEC$_{\textrm{MHz}}$, developed at STFC, is the latest generation of the HEXITEC spectroscopic...
