Photon imaging using post-processed CMOS chips

Abstract

e cover shows images of UV light recorded with a Timepix chip (chapter 5). To do this an InGrid detector structure and a CsI photocathode have been postprocessed onto the IC. e background that is used on the cover is an image of patterns in porous alumina, a material that has been investigated for the structures described in chapter 6.

The Pixel-TPC: A feasibility study

“…Other feasibility studies demonstrated the possibility to measure photon polarisation [109], the general capabilities to detect photons [110] and the application in tumour proton therapy [111]. To summarise, the InGrid device is used for a wide variety of utilisations not only in the field of particle physics.…”
