Outline of Final Research Achievements |
We have developed a 4096-pixel superconducting-tunnel-junction (STJ) array X-ray detector with detection area of 40 mm2 combining embedded superconducting wirings. The STJs have good current-voltage characteristics with a leak current of several nA, and achieved high energy resolution of about 11 eV for K line of carbon and oxygen. The developed detector has realized X-ray detection efficiency of several 100 mSr, which is about the same as that of semiconductor X-ray detectors. Therefore, the superconducting X-ray detector can achieve the high energy resolution of wavelength dispersive X-ray spectrometers and the high efficiency of semiconductor X-ray detectors.
