AdvaPIX MAGIC Dual Photon-Counting X-ray Detector
This high-precision, high-speed particle tracking detector is equipped with four Timepix3 chips, offering exceptional resolution, speed, and ionizing radiation detection capability. Its housing shape and internal electronic components enable it to withstand high-energy X-ray beam exposure without damaging the device.
Model: AdvaPIX MAGIC Dual
Brand: Advacam
Introduction
Advanced high-speed spectral imaging camera optimized for high-energy operating conditions
AdvaPIX MAGIC Dual Integrates multiple advantages: the readout circuit is laid out on the side of the sensor's sensitive area, minimizing the material behind the sensor, thereby providing an unobstructed path for the primary X-ray beam. The detector uses a single USB3.0 interface to enable synchronized operation of four Timepix3 chips.
This detector has a dual-chip structure with a rectangular sensitive area measuring 28×14 mm and a pixel resolution of 131,072 pixels. Compared to the standard single-chip AdvaPIX version, this version offers a larger sensitive area, allowing more data to be collected in a single measurement.
The AdvaPIX MAGIC Dual is the world's first photon-counting detector supporting list-mode data-driven operation. In this mode, each radiation hit event is recorded in real time into a continuous data stream. The device precisely measures the position, energy, and arrival time of each detected quantum.
General Parameters
Typical Applications
Energy-resolved imaging (X-ray, neutron, ion)
Particle tracking
Time-of-flight imaging
Compton camera
X-ray spectral imaging
Crystallographic analysis (small-angle scattering/X-ray diffraction)
By depositing a conversion layer (6LiF), the sensor can be adapted for neutron imaging needs. Combined with advanced data processing techniques that record individual hit events, ultra-high spatial resolution imaging can be achieved, with resolution reaching the micron level (X-ray) or even sub-micron level (ions).
