Extract

The advent of intense synchrotron radiation sources for X-ray diffraction has made many otherwise difficult experiments feasible. The increased intensity will not he fully utilized, however, unless there are farther developments in detector technology. Improvement in detector characteristics will, of course, aid those using laboratory sources as well. For instance, construction of low noise, high, quantum efficiency detectors will reduce integration times and enable one to detect weak signals.

To make a complete quantitative assessment of a detector's capabilities at various doses, one should make a quantitative measurement of the detective quantum efficiency (DQE), defined as the square of the output signal to noise ratio divided by the square of the input signal to noise ratio. This and other detector attributes are discussed in S. M. Gruner & J. R. Milch, Trans. Amer. Cryst. Assoc, 18, 149, (1982)Google Scholar
