FlächenArray
FlächenArray refers to a type of sensor or detector arrangement where multiple individual sensing elements are arranged in a two-dimensional grid or array. This arrangement allows for the simultaneous measurement of physical quantities across a surface. Such arrays are commonly used in imaging applications, where each element in the array captures a pixel of light, forming a complete image. They can also be employed for detecting and localizing events over an area, such as in seismic sensors or radiation detectors. The resolution of a FlächenArray is determined by the number of individual elements and their spacing. The data generated by a FlächenArray is typically processed to reconstruct spatial information and analyze patterns or anomalies within the measured surface. The specific technology and materials used for the sensing elements vary greatly depending on the intended application, ranging from silicon photodiodes in cameras to specialized semiconductors for scientific instruments.
