Abstract :
Medipix2 assemblies with CdTe sensors have been characterized using synchrotron radiation. Processing of the assemblies has been done at the Freiburg material research center (FMF), the characterization has been performed at the ANKA at the Forschungszentrum Karlsruhe. The following paper reports the first results of the research of efficient pixelarray detectors for application in a synchrotron providing high energetic photons. Examinations on the homogeneity of the sensor, charge sharing and an energy scan will be shown.
