Abstract: Abstract: A set of double-sided 3D silicon detectors have been fabricated, bump bonded to single-photon-counting Medipix2 readout chips, and tested using X-ray sources. When tested with monochromatic X-rays, the 3D detectors show reduced charge sharing compared with standard planar pixel detectors [Copyright &y& Elsevier]
