© 2016 IEEE. The Energy-Resolved Neutron Imaging System RADEN, located at the J-PARC Materials and Life Science Experimental Facility in Japan, is the world's first dedicated high-intensity, short-pulsed neutron imaging beam line. To carry out energy-resolved neutron imging at RADEN, we use cutting-edge detector systems employing micropattern detectors and data acquisition systems based on Field Programmable Gate Arrays to provide the necessary sub-μs time resolution, high counting rates, and event-by-event background rejection. One such detector, the Micro Pixel Chamber-based Neutron Imaging Detector (μNID), provides a spatial resolution of 120 μm (σ), time resolution of 0.6 μs, 18% detection efficiency for thermal neutrons, and effective gamma sensitivity of less than 10-12. We have recently increased the rate capacity of the μNID from 600 kcps to more than 8 Mcps via an upgrade of the readout electronics and the introduction of a new gas mixture optimized for higher count rate, better spatial resolution, and higher detection efficiency. We are also developing new detection elements with strip pitches of 280 μm and 215 μm, down from 400 μm, with a corresponding improvement in the spatial resolution expected. Here, we present the progress of the ongoing development of the μNID, including the results of recent on-beam tests performed at RADEN.
