The consortium with the participation of the Institute of Radiation Problems won the international grant competition under the "Horizon" Program
The project called "Innovative Photodetector Module for Advanced Hybrid "Magnetic Resonance/Positron Emission Tomography" Scanners for Nuclear Medicine" declared the winner which will be prepared by the scientists of the "Innovative ionizing radiation receivers" laboratory of the Institute of Radiation Problems of the Ministry of Science and Education of the Republic of Azerbaijan to study the application of new silicon-based photoelectronic amplifiers in Hybrid Scanners.
The project presented under the call HORIZON-MSCA-2021-SE-01 and financed by the European Commission is planned to be implemented in 6 work packages within 48 months.
During the project designed to improve the parameters of detectors in PET-MRI hybrid scanners, the preparation and setting of parameters of new photodiodes, the preparation and testing of supporting electronic parts, as well as the preparation and testing of the detector module are planned.
In addition to the Institute of Radiation Problems, the Innovation and Digital Development Agency of the Ministry of Digital Development and Transport of the Republic of Azerbaijan, the Faculty of Physics of Bolu Abant Izzet Baysal University of Turkey, the COFAC (Cooperativa de Formacao e Animacao Cultural, C.L.R) Cooperative of Portugal, the Faculty of Electrical Engineering of the West Bohemian University of the Czech Republic and the Institute of Nuclear Research of the National Academy of Sciences of Ukraine also participate.
It should be noted that the scientists of the "Innovative ionizing radiation receivers" Laboratory headed by Associate Professor Farid Ahmadov, a young doctor of physics at the Institute of Radiation Problems, have extensive experience in the development of silicon-based photoelectronic amplifiers and their application. In this direction, in the last 10 years, the laboratory published more than 70 scientific works, received 6 patents, and implemented more than 10 local and international grant projects. At present, close cooperation is being carried out with scientific institutions of Turkey, the Czech Republic, Portugal, Germany, Canada, Ukraine and Russia in the direction of the preparation and application of photodiodes.
