abstract = "The detection of X-rays is a unique process relative to other wavelengths, and allows for some novel features that increase the scientific yield of a single observation. Unlike lower photon energies, X-rays liberate a large number of electrons from the silicon absorber array of the detector. This number is usually on the order of several hundred to a thousand for moderate-energy X-rays. These electrons tend to diffuse outward into what is referred to as the electron cloud. This cloud can then be picked up by several pixels, forming a specific pattern based on the exact incident location. By conducting the first ever {"}mesh experiment{"} on a hybrid CMOS detector (HCD), we will experimentally determine the charge cloud shape and use it to characterize responsivity of the detector with subpixel spatial resolution.",
