Abstract
The European Space Agency X-ray Multi-Mirror mission will be devoted to X-ray imaging and spectroscopy with high throughput. Both the EPIC focal plane camera instrument, and the RGS dispersive spectrometer require detectors with high sensitivity in the soft X-ray waveband. A description of
