MYTHEN2 for Synchrotrons

These are reliable and versatile X-ray detectors with a 50-µm strip and the highest available count rate for synchrotrons.

 

DECTRIS® MYTHEN2 strip detectors have transformed high-resolution X-ray diffraction, scattering, and spectroscopy measurements by giving them another dimension: time. Renowned for its narrow strip and sharp point-spread function, MYTHEN2 X introduces a 1,000-Hz frame rate with a 24-bit dynamic range for any number of modules. This opens up new domains of time-resolved and in situ studies.

The Detector Control System 4 (DCS4), with electronic gating and an external trigger, allows for tailor-made multimodular solutions and full synchronization of the detector with other systems. The time dimension, however, does not compromise data quality or system flexibility: we guarantee noise-free detection even for long exposure times. Additionally, the modules’ optional vacuum compatibility opens up new possibilities for X-ray spectroscopy applications.

 
  • Fast & accurate: these detectors offer noise-free detection over a range of X-ray energies, with frame rates up to 1,000 Hz and a 24-bit dynamic range.
  • Modular & compatible: individual modules are easy to combine into large multimodular systems. The detectors also offer 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.
