摘要：

Investigations of interpolating cathode “pad” readout have been carried out for high multiplicity, two dimensional position sensitive detection of minimum ionizing particles and heavy ions. A detector configuration representing only 0.6% of a radiation length and covering an area of 26 cm by 16 cm, with over 1000 readout channels, has been developed. In a prototype chamber using this technique, a resolution of less than 100 µm (rms), for 5.4 keV x-ray, and differential non-linearity of ±6% have been achieved. The technique has also been demonstrated for detectors of much larger area. Copyright © 1990 by The Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers, Inc.
