A new analogue high-precision peak detector is presented. Owing to its very low power consumption the circuit is particularly well suited for photon energy detection in multichannel receiver integrated circuits used in nuclear medicine. ...
The glass transition temperature (Tg) of polymer nanostructures was measured using a technique based on synchrotron x-ray diffraction from periodic grating structures. Poly(methyl methacrylate) (PMMA) nanostructures consisting of 1:1 lines:spaces with a 10 ...
Site-specific radiation damage on anomalously scattering sites can be used to generate additional phase information in standard single- or multi-wavelength anomalous diffraction (SAD or MAD) experiments. In this approach the data are kept unmerged, down to ...
X-ray radiographic absorption imaging is an invaluable tool in medical diagnostics and materials science. For biological tissue samples, polymers or fibre composites, however, the use of conventional X-ray radiography is limited due to their weak absorptio ...
One of the main factors that affect the accuracy of intensity-based registration of two-dimensional (2D) X-ray fluoroscopy to three-dimensional (3D) CT data is the similarity measure, which is a criterion function that is used in the registration procedure ...
Changes in the electronic structure of Yb, a material whose valence is modified under pressure, are observed with remarkable detail in x-ray absorption and emission data measured between ambient conditions and 20 GPa. These changes are reproduced by a theo ...
L2,3 x-ray absorption spectra of aq. [RuII(bpy)3]2+ were recorded in its ground and excited states, 50 ps after short pulse laser excitation. Significant changes in both the XANES (x-ray Near-Edge Absorption Structure) and the EXAFS (Extended x-ray Absorpt ...
Radiation damage in macromolecular crystals is not suppressed even at 90 K. This is particularly true for covalent bonds involving an anomalous scatterer (such as bromine) at the `peak wavelength'. It is shown that a series of absorption spectra recorded o ...
Interventional radiology is a minimally invasive procedure where thin instruments, guidewires and catheters or stents are steered through the patient’s vascular system under X- ray imaging for treatment of vascular diseases. The complexity of these procedu ...
A method to fabricate gold structures with high aspect ratio is presented. Fresnel zone plates with an outermost zone width of 100nm and structures of 1μm height are fabricated. Preliminary focusing results at an X-ray energy of 8keV are presented and ways ...
