  2. Photoionization detector - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Photoionization_detector

    In a photoionization detector, high-energy photons, typically in the vacuum ultraviolet (VUV) range, break molecules into positively charged ions. [2] As compounds enter the detector they are bombarded by high-energy UV photons and are ionized when they absorb the UV light, resulting in ejection of electrons and the formation of positively charged ions.

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Medipix

    Medipix-2, Timepix, and Medipix-3 are all 256×256 pixels, each 0.055 mm (55 μm) square, forming a total area 14.08 mm × 14.08 mm. Larger area detectors can be created by bump-bonding many chips to larger monolithic sensors. Detectors of sizes from 2x2 to 2x4 chips are commonly used.
