摘要：
We have developed cryogenic detectors based on superconducting phase transition thermometers (SPTs) for applications in x-ray astronomy. For a detector, which was designed for I-dimensional imaging, an energy resolution of 216 eV (@5.9 keV) and a position resolution of about 200 mum has been demonstrated over an absorber length as long as fcm. Finally, the possibilities for achieving better resolving power, improved position resolution, larger active area and increased counting capability will be discussed.
