TL;DR: This letter reports a new approach on the basis of a grating interferometer that can efficiently yield dark-field scatter images of high quality, even with conventional X-ray tube sources and is fully compatible with conventional transmission radiography and a recently developed hard-X-ray phase-contrast imaging scheme.

TL;DR: Characterization of PILATUS single-photon-counting X-ray detector modules regarding charge sharing, energy resolution and rate capability is presented and the performance of the detector was tested with surface diffraction experiments at the synchrotron.

TL;DR: The PILATUS hybrid pixel detector as discussed by the authors combines silicon sensors with CMOS processing chips by a 2D micro bump-bonding interconnection technology developed at the Paul Scherrer Institute.

TL;DR: A report on the characterization, calibration and performances of the MYTHEN photon-counting silicon microstrip detector at the powder diffraction station at the Swiss Light Source is given.

TL;DR: Pilatus as discussed by the authors is a silicon hybrid pixel detector system for detecting X-rays in single photon counting mode, which is suitable for various X-ray applications such as diffraction and imaging techniques.
