Detection - resolution - FOV

Detection system

The X-ray detection system consists of camera, lens and scintillator screens. The pixel size and the resolving power of the detection system is not the most relevant information for a TXM since the final resolution and field of view (FOV) depends on the magnification obtained with the Fresnel zone plate objective lens performed in the X-ray regim.
