Abstract
Read-out device and method for the Contrast-Frequency Characteristics (CFC) measurements of the Imaging Plates X-ray area detectors are described. The results of the CFC measurements for the different types of these detectors are shown. Also shown is the preliminary result of CFC measurement for the new detector type - microstructured memorized Imaging Plates with improved spatial resolution, produced with LIGA-technology on the synchrotron radia tion beam on the VEPP-3 storage ring. These results demonstrate that the sp ecific information capacity of the new microstructured detectors more than 2 times exceed the specific information capacity of the FUJI serial product ion detectors.
