TL;DR: A wide range of position-sensitive X-ray detectors have been commissioned on the synchrotron Xray beamlines operating at the Diamond Light Source in UK as discussed by the authors, including image-plates, CCD-based detectors, multi-wire and micro-strip gas detectors, and more recent detectors based on semiconductor pixel or strip sensors coupled to CMOS read-out chips.

TL;DR: In this article, a double-sided 3D pixel sensor with columnar electrodes was used to study variations in response across a unit pixel cell in a 55μm pitch doublesided pixel sensor bump bonded to TimePix and Medipix2 readout ASICs.

TL;DR: In this article, a double-sided 3D photodiode detector has been tested in a monochromatic X-ray beam at the Diamond synchrotron, showing that it has substantially lower charge sharing than a standard planar Medipix2 sensor.

TL;DR: In this article, the authors present the results from synchrotron X-rays tests to evaluate the Medipix3RX ASIC performance, showing that the newly implemented CSM algorithm eliminates the charge sharing effect at the same time as allocating the event to the readout pixel corresponding to the sensor pixel where the X-ray photon impinged.

TL;DR: In this paper, a microstrip detector was constructed from gallium arsenide (GaAs) wafers made from undoped LEC (liquid-encapsulated Czochralski) semi-insulating substrate material.
