Colour Detectors

We have funding from EPSRC to establish a new national facility for laboratory-based CT involving a number of imaging systems (www.nxct.ac.uk). One of the modalities specified in the grant application was a full colour x-ray imaging system utilising two colour sensitive X-ray array detectors. We wish to develop and apply colour/hyperspectral CT imaging methods to correlate the structure and functionality of new materials for catalysis; batteries; nuclear waste storage/processing and tissue engineering. Spectroscopic imaging offers a unique insight into the structural and chemical properties o…
