10.2.2 Induced Current and Charge in Strip and Pixel
Electrodes: Shielding Effect
The shielding effect is proportional to the ratio of the distance between the planar
electrodes and the strip width (i.e., pixel radius). The shielding effect is more
pronounced for pixels than for strips. The result of these configurations is that the
