Abstract
Many different patterns have been proposed for coded masks, from Fresnel zone plates, through scatter-hole designs, to various patterns which are ‘optimal’ in different senses. We present a compendium of such patterns, with examples and their autocorrelation functions, together with a bibliography of associated literature.

Methods for Synthesizing Coded Masks

TL;DR: In this paper, methods for the visualization of the studied objects based on employing so-called coded masks (apertures) have been elaborated, which are used in satellite-based orbital telescopes.

Performance of large-area CZT detectors for hard X-ray imaging

TL;DR: In this article, a monolithic CZT detector for hard x-ray imaging applications is presented, which measures 32/spl times/32 mm/sup 2/ and 25/spltimes/25 mm/Sup 2//spl times 2 mm thick.

Coded aperture imaging with uniformly redundant arrays

TL;DR: Computer simulations show that the URA with significant shot and background noise is vastly superior to random array techniques without noise, and permits a detector which is smaller than its random array counterpart.

New family of binary arrays for coded aperture imaging

TL;DR: With the addition of MURAs to the family of binary arrays, all prime numbers can now be used for making optimal coded apertures, increasing the number of available square patterns by more than a factor of 3.

Fourier transform photography: a new method for X-ray astronomy

TL;DR: In this paper, a pinhole camera with resolutions better than 10−3 rad is presented. But the apertures are very small, not greater than about 10−4 cm2.
