Keywords: | Gaseous radiation detectors; Microstrip detectors; Photocathodes; X-ray spectroscopy detectors; Scintillation detectors | Issue Date: | 8-Dec-2008 | Publisher: | IEEE | Citation: | IEEE Transactions on Nuclear Science. 55:5 (2008) 2662-2665 | Abstract: | A Gas Proportional Scintillation Counter based on a dual-cathode Microstrip Plate covered with a CsI film is described. This new dual-cathode technique has the advantage of increasing the VUV sensitive area of the Microstrip Plate. A detailed description of the technique is presented together with a discussion of the performance. The results obtained for a xenon filled Gas Proportional Scintillation Counter show an improvement of the energy resolution for 5.9 keV X-rays from 12.7%, for a single cathode device, to 11.1% for the dual-cathode device | URI: | https://hdl.handle.net/10316/12924 | ISSN: | 0018-9499 | DOI: | 10.1109/TNS.2008.2002325 | Rights: | openAccess |
