  "abstract": "The astrophysical gamma rays in the MeV energy region have not yet been well-explored due to the limitation of detection technology in the past decades, and the famous gamma-ray \"MeV gap\" exists. Opening the window of MeV gamma-ray is not only critical for the gamma astronomy but also essential for rich frontier researches in astro-particle physics, such as detecting light dark matter, probing the primordial black hole and better understanding of nucleosynthesis. As a pilot experiment of the project for dark matter detection in space at Shanghai Jiao Tong University, a three-layer Compton camera with the energy resolution better than 4% and position resolution of ~2 mm is developed utilizing the novel scintillators. Here we show the design, detailed calibration and validation results of the novel Compton camera, and demonstrate its good ability of MeV gamma-ray source imaging for the upcoming in-orbit mission.",
