  • Abstract
    In this paper first results of a new detector concept called Sensitivity encoded Silicon Photomultiplier (SeSP) that has been invented in 2011 has been presented. It combines the advantages of sensitivity encoding and SiPM technology without changing the manufacturing process of the devices.
