ALBA, CSIC and Alibava develop an X-Ray detector
A team of researchers and engineers of the ALBA Synchrotron has collaborated with members of the company Alibava Systems and the Institute of Microelectronics of Barcelona (IMB-CNM CSIC) to develop a radiation detector aimed at measuring the intensity of the beam with high precision when performing an experiment at a synchrotron facility. This new detector enables a correct development of the experiment, ensuring the quality of the obtained data and reducing the time of the experiment.
The collaboration between the ALBA Synchrotron and Alibava Systems, a spin-off company of the Spanish National Research Council (CSIC) located at the UAB Research Park, has been complemented with a license agreement that lets Alibava commercialise a product originated from research results of the synchrotron facility and the CSIC.
As of today, the device has been successfully tested at the ALBA Synchrotron and other synchrotron facilities, such as the European Synchrotron Radiation Facility (ESRF). It is expected to sell the first detectors in the following months to universities and synchrotron facilities and the responsible of the project estimate to sell about 50 devices per year.
