Published with license by Taylor & Francis Group, LLC Hybrid photon counting detectors open the door to new time domains The availability of the hybrid photon counting (HPC) technology for noise-free X-ray detection was a landmark achievement for the synchrotron community: the advent of HPC detectors not only led to a significant improvement of the acquired data quality [1], but also enabled new experiments in previously unreachable time-domains [2]. Even today, more than two decades [3] after the first HPC detectors were introduced at beamlines, the pursuit of faster detector performance continues [4].
