The data acquisition system of ibPET has undergone several upgrades during the years, And its data processing capability now exceeds one million events per second per channel. To achieve optimal performance of the ibPET under existing conditions, we tested coincident events and noise equivalent count (NEC) under different time coincidence windows.The results show that the signal-to-noise ratio of the reconstructed image data reaches its peak when the time window is around 3 ns, indicating that the ibPET performance is optimal at this point. In order to determine the size of the time window, we measured the system's time resolution FWHM to be 1.63 ns, and ultimately chose a time window size of twice the time resolution FWHM, which is 3.25 ns. Meanwhile, we demonstrate the capability of our ibPET to monitor the dose range with various irradiation. The results demonstrate that the system exhibits the expected exponential decay in counting rate after irradiation, and accurately provides penetration depth positions at different energy levels.","PeriodicalId":507814,"journal":{"name":"Journal of Instrumentation","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2024-04-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"140759554","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Recently, the translocation of photosynthates\u0000 into fruits has been studied intensively using a 11C tracer.\u0000 The relatively complex shapes of the stems and leaves of these\u0000 plants sometimes prevent the detector heads of the PMPS from\u0000 approaching and being fixed to the target stem properly because of\u0000 its relatively large and heavy detector heads based on\u0000 photomultiplier tubes. Owing to the compactness, lightweightness\u0000 and recent advances of silicon photomultipliers (SiPMs), fabricating\u0000 compact and lightweight detector heads has become possible. In this\u0000 study, we developed a compact PMPS (CPMPS) using SiPMs and\u0000 successfully demonstrated its capability for monitoring a 11C\u0000 tracer in strawberry stems. Moreover, we found that energy-window\u0000 filtering markedly reduced noise events without radiation shielding.\u0000 The dominant ionisation events detected by the CPMPS were Compton\u0000 scattering and subsequent photoabsorption of a single 511 keV gamma\u0000 ray, suggesting that the ionisation events of single-gamma-ray\u0000 emitters, such as 42K, 43K, 54Mn, 59Fe and\u0000 65Zn, can be detected by the CPMPS.

The Future Detection\u0000 System comprises a hybrid-pixel detector with a collective\u0000 resolution of 2048 × 2048 pixels, each measuring\u0000 100 μm× 100 μm. It consists of 16 p-i-n\u0000 SPSs, where each sensor has an array size of 1024× 256\u0000 pixels. In this paper, the design of the pixel and guard rings is\u0000 optimized to achieve uniform and ultra-low pixels leakage currents\u0000 under high operating voltage. The high leakage current uniformity of\u0000 the designed sensor is demonstrated through several tests conducted\u0000 on small scale array SPS. The leakage current of the tested pixels\u0000 is in the range of 0.50–0.55 pA at room temperature with less than\u0000 5% leakage deviation on the whole array.

The optimized\u0000 256× 128 pixel SPS showcases uniform leakage currents below\u0000 0.6 pA per pixel at room temperature, as evidence in both the edge\u0000 and central pixels. The 1024× 256 pixels SPS is then\u0000 manufactured based on the optimized design results. The obtained\u0000 results show that the breakdown voltage is greater than 1000 V and\u0000 the leakage current of the pixel is less than 2.5 pA. In addition,\u0000 the interpixel capacitance of the sensor also reach an ultra-low\u0000 level of 16 fF.
