  2. XFEL -Detector Requirements Unique time structure of the beam: • 600 µs long bunch trains • at a repeatition rate of • 10 Hz • Each train consists of • 2700 bunches with a • separation of 220 ns • (SASE) Each bunch • consists of ~1012 photons • arriving <100 fs • Other specifications: • 27000 X-ray flashes per sec • Wavelength: 0.1 .. 6 nm • (12.4 .. 0.2 keV) • Peak Brilliance: 5.1033ph/(s.mm2.rad2. 0,1% bandwidth)

  3. XFEL -Detector Requirements Approach Charge integration Beam provides Simultaneous deposition of all photons Challenges Single photon counting not possible • Dynamic range • of the detector: • 0 … <104 ph/pixel Dynamic gain switichng  3 gain stages  Single photon counting capability for highest gain • High number • of bunches • 2700 bunches • per train (600 µs) Analog storage on >200 storage cells Reading out of single frames impossible

  6. AGIPD - Prototypes AGIPD 0.2 AGIPD 0.1 AGIPD 0.3 • No pixels yet • 3 readout blocks • consisting of: •  Readout chain • (Preamp + CDS stage) • 3 different kinds of • leakage current • compensation • 16 x 16 pixels • 100 storage cells • No leakage current • compensation • Different combinations of preamps and storage cell architechures • 16 x 16 pixels • 200 storage cells • Radiation hard storage • cell design • High speed serial • control logic

AGIPD – Characterization AGIPD 0.2 AGIPD 0.1 AGIPD 0.3 • Linearity of the gain • Stress-test of the • input gate at the • preamp • Temporal behavior of • the preamp and CDS • stage • Energy calibration • Noise determination • Pixel-to-Pixel • variations • Storage cells variations • First imaging • Radiation hardness of • storage cells • Test of the high speed • serial control logic Okay! Ongoing Okay!

  8. AGIPD 0.1 - Linearity of the gain(before stress-test) • Linearity test using a pulser applying voltage pulses on a 11 pF input • capacitance: •  A voltage pulse of 1 V corresponds to an equivalent charge of • ~20000 x 12 keV photons •  Pulsing with 1 kHz for 1 hour: 3.6 106 x 20k 12 keV photons • Rise time of the pulse: 5 ns

  11. AGIPD 0.1 - Linearity of the gain(after stress-test)

  12. AGIPD 0.1 -Linearity of the gain(after stress-test) Are the pulses arriving fast enough? How does the switching look like?

  13. Direct measurements (Preamp/CDS)High gainstage • Resumee: • Risetime of • pulser is 5 ns • Preamp and • CDS are • properly working • within ~50 ns No switching

  14. Direct measurements (Preamp/CDS)Medium gainstage 1x switching

  15. Direct measurements (Preamp/CDS)Low gainstage 2x switchings

  16. Direct measurements (Preamp/CDS)Low gainstage • Resumee: • Preamp and • CDS are • properly working • within ~50 ns, • also when gain • switching 1x and • 2x 2x switchings

  17. AGIPD 0.2 – Energy calibration • Energy calibration done using X-ray fluorescence from Ge (10 keV), Mo • (17.5 keV) and Sn (25 keV) • Integration time was 1 s • Sensor voltage 120 V • 600000 frames investigated per photon energy Ge (10 keV) Mo (17.5 keV) Sn (25 keV) Nonlog scale to demonstrate low number of fluorescence photons!

  18. AGIPD 0.2 – Energy calibration / Noise • Noise measurements with an integration time of 100 ns reveal a value of (1.15 ± 0.11) keV, corresponding to an ENC of (318 ± 30) e-
