Description
A one dimensional electron counting detector array for electron spectroscopy applications is presented. The array uses a microchannel plate in conjunction with a custom ASIC.
The detector assembly is fitted at the focal plane of the CLAM4 hemispherical energy analyser and enables imaging across the width of the focal plane. The electron energy analyser is built into a system specifically designed for in-situ real-time electron spectroscopy. The detector system is controlled by means of a stand alone controller based on a National Instruments cRIO embedded computer. Results are presented showing key aspects of the detector, including the linearity of the device and maximum readout speed and count rate.
