Development of an X ray pixel detector with multi port charge coupled device for X ray free electron laser experiments.
This paper presents development of an X ray pixel detector with a multi port charge coupled device (MPCCD) for X ray Free Electron laser experiments. The fabrication process of the CCD was selected based on the X ray radiation hardness against the estimated annual dose of 1.6 x 10(14) photon/mm(2) The sensor device was optimized by maximizing the full well capacity as high as 5 Me within 50 mm square pixels while keeping the single photon detection capability for X ray photons higher than 6 keV and a readout speed of 60 frames/s. The system development also included a detector system for the MPCCD sensor. This paper summarizes the performance, calibration methods, and operation status.
