A new semi-empirical model for proton induced SEU is presented. For estimating the energy deposited by the protons in the sensitive volumes of the devices the model uses the measured spectra of surface barrier detectors (SBD) with the same thicknesses of t ...
A simple method for the preparation of isomorphous xenon derivatives is presented. A device has been designed that allows diffraction studies on protein crystals under xenon gas pressures up to 50 x 10(5) Pa. Crystal mounting and X-ray data collection do n ...
We demonstrate the detection of a molecular beam by means of a micromechanical momentum transfer detector operated in vibrational resonance. With a sensitive surface area of 0.5x0.3 mm(2) the small paddle allows us to detect a beam with 6.5x10(7) He atoms ...
Pyroelectric thin-film point detectors and 1 x 12 arrays have been fabricated and characterized. They consist of sol-gel-deposited PZT thin-film elements on micromachined Si3N4/SiO2 membranes. The measured current and voltage response as a function of modu ...
The biomedical use of an optical fiber-based spectro- temporal fluorometer that can endoscopically record the fluorescence decay of an entire spectrum without scanning is presented. The detector consists of a streak camera coupled to a spectrograph. A mode ...
In the frame of the RD26 collaboration at CERN we have built and tested several prototypes of fast-RICH detectors suitable for the construction of large systems. The detectors used a solid photocathode consisting of a 500 nm CsI layer evaporated on a conve ...
The paper discusses an experimental demonstration of Bloch oscillations connected with Bragg reflection of electrons from the first miniband edge in superlattices of different silicon carbide polytypes. The original experimental method was geared towards o ...
