Abstract :
The Controlled-Drift Detector (CDD) is a new X-ray imaging detector operated in integrate-readout mode. Its basic feature is the fast transport of the integrated charge to the output electrode by means of a uniform drift field. The energy-resolved X-ray imaging capability of the CDD has been tested at room temperature. The images of a 55Fe source taken with the CDD at different frame rates (up to 10 kHz) are presented and the achieved energy resolution is analyzed. A detector with such features can be of interest in several fields of application like time-resolved X-ray crystallography and astronomy.
