Customized silicon diode detectors are widely used for elementary particle detection for their good spatial resolution. Silicon detectors are also excellent X-ray detectors in the energy range of interest for applications in synchrotron radiation experiments and, with small elements laid out in a two-dimensional array, may provide high performance imaging devices for future diffraction experiments.
