  A thin (0.05cm) and wide area (5cmX5cm) NaI(Tl) scintillator was developed.
The performance of the thin NaI(Tl) plate, energy resolution, single
photoelectron energy and position sensitivity were tested. An excellent energy
resolution of 20% (FWHM) at 60keV was obtained. The single photoelectron energy
was calculated to be approximately 0.42 0.02keV. Position information in the
5cmx5cm area of the detector was also obtained by analyzing the ratio of the
number of photons collected at opposite ends of the detector. The position
resolution was obtained to be 1cm (FWHM) in the 5cmx5cm area.
