“…Recent work has demonstrated the effectiveness of Medipix2 silicon detector assemblies in electron cryo-microscopy [8] and in Low Energy Electron Microscopy (LEEM) [9]. In LEEM applications it is possible to simply replace the conventional Micro-Channel Plate (MCP) and CCD imaging system with a Medipix2 assembly and produce images of a significantly improved quality, as shown in Figure 1.…”

These proceedings describe the current status of the Medipix family of pixel readout chips. The current chips, Medipix2, Timepix and Medipix3 are described and their applications briefly summarised. A future readout chip Timepix2 is also discussed and two possible implementations are explored. The Medipix2 and Timepix chips have allowed a wide variety of fields to access hybrid pixel technology where it would otherwise have not been financially viable. This has lead to a very broad range of applications, including material analysis, medical imaging, sensor development, dosimitry, neutron monitoring and education. The success and maturity of the technology has also led to the chips being used to develop future systems within HEP, particularly the future LHCb pixel vertex tracker. * Speaker.
