8. Combining the strengths of UMIST and The Victoria University of Manchester Limiting factors of the current rTEDDI system

9. Combining the strengths of UMIST and The Victoria University of Manchester Current limitations 1. rTEDDI is currently limited to thin samples due to the low detection efficiency of Si at energies above ~20keV 2. Any pixelated detector used in the rTEDDI system must be able to handle high countrates (1000-10 000 ((hits/pixel)/second) for higher flux beamstations.

Combining the strengths of UMIST and The Victoria University of Manchester Np daughters Am-241 Cd&Te escape peaks In order to increase the energy range efficiency of the detector the 300µm Si crystal was substituted for a 2mm thick CZT crystal Flood Field irradiation setup Spectral response of EDR2004 using CZT to flood field irradiation irradiation by a Am-241 dial source Substituting Si for CZT

14. Combining the strengths of UMIST and The Victoria University of Manchester Countrate measurements Deadtime measurements (T reset measurement) Conclusions: DAQ system prevents the clocking frequency needed to obtain countrate requirements of rTEDDI Countrate limitations

15. Combining the strengths of UMIST and The Victoria University of Manchester CP CP-1 CP+1 CP+7 CP+8 CP+9 CP-9 CP-8 CP-7 Charge sharing correction tests Addition: Highest energy value pixel of the two is awarded the full charge and set as the central pixel for comparison with next event pixel. The lowest value pixel is set to zero. Discrimination: All charge shared events are set to zero. By targeting simultaneous hits on neighbouring pixels two charge sharing correction scripts where developed and compared

16. Combining the strengths of UMIST and The Victoria University of Manchester Charge sharing correction tests Conclusion: Charge sharing correction has poor result on this detector. Addition which is the ideal correction for rTEDDI since it does not throw away events is not valid due to the electronic cut-off
