  • Abstract
    The paper discusses basic characterization of Monolithic Active Pixel Sensors (MAPS) carried out at the X12A beam-line at National Synchrotron Light Source (NSLS), Upton, NY, USA. The tested device was a MIMOSA V (MV) chip, back-thinned down to the epitaxial layer. This 1M pixels device features a pixel size of 17 × 17 μ m 2 and was designed in a 0.6 μ m CMOS process. The X-ray beam energies used range from 5 to 12 keV. Examples of direct X-ray imaging capabilities are presented.
