MYTHEN2

DECTRIS MYTHEN®2 single-photon-counting X-ray detectors feature the narrowest strip on the market (50 µm), which is available in three thicknesses. Offering noise-free performance and an excellent count rate, these microstrip detectors allow for premium resolution at X-ray energies from 4 to 40 keV, with either short or long exposure times. Their compact size is suitable for a range of diffractometers and spectrometers and allows multimodular systems to be built in various geometries. Additionally, MYTHEN2 detectors introduce an unprecedented frame rate with a high dynamic range for any number of modules.

  • ✓ Fast & accurate: MYTHEN2 detectors offer noise-free detection at the highest commercially available count rate for an extended energy range (from 4 to 40 keV).
  • ✓ Modular & compatible: individual detector modules are easy to combine into large systems. MYTHEN2 also offers straightforward synchronization with other systems and optional vacuum capability.
  • ✓ Reliable: detector performance is always stable. Delivery terms are guaranteed, thanks to streamlined industrial production and top-notch support.

Technology

Single-photon-counting technology enables us to create detectors that are free of readout noise and dark current, and our hybrid-photon-counting (HPC) detectors can suppress fluorescence radiation. Thanks to these technologies, every photon is detected individually and counted in the detector.
