Abstract
We present the first results of the application of a novel digital X-r ay imaging detector, based on secondary electron emission from a solid converter, to high-rate crystallographic studies. Results from diffra ction and small-angle scattering experiments from several crystallized proteins, performed at the European Synchrotron Radiation Facility, E SRF, Grenoble, are presented and compared with a phosphor-based imagin g system. Future developments of this detector system are proposed.
