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 of materials across wide range of subject areas by providing non-destructive 3D maps of changing crystal structures and elemental distributions. The methods we propose to develop can be applied to crystalline or amorphous materials by reconstructing images based on scattered rather than transmitted X-rays (e.g. XRD or PDF).
