In the last ten to fifteen years there has been much research in using amorphous and
polycrystalline semiconductors as x-ray photoconductors in various x-ray image sensor …

Large-area X-ray imaging is one of the most widely used imaging modalities that spans
several scientific and technological fields. Currently, the direct X-ray conversion materials …

Medical imaging instrumentation is mostly based on the use of luminescent materials
coupled to optical sensors. These materials are employed in the form of granular screens …

Choice Recommended Title, July 2020 Bringing together material scattered across many
disciplines, Semiconductor Radiation Detectors provides readers with a consolidated source …

We report on experimental results which show that the dark current in nip structured,
amorphous selenium films is independent of i-layer thickness in samples with consistently …

We describe a multi-layer (“sandwich”) configuration detector consisting of two x-ray imaging
flat-panel detectors for single-shot (single-kV) dual-energy imaging. An intermediate copper …

Hydrogenated amorphous silicon (a-Si: H) is attractive for radiation detectors because of its
radiation resistance and processability over large areas with mature Si microfabrication …

Digital x-ray detectors are now the detector of choice in many X-ray examinations. They
have been accepted into clinical practice over the past decade but there are still ongoing …

Publisher Summary Amorphous silicon thin films were first deposited by plasma-enhanced
chemical vapor deposition (PECVD). The amorphous silicon layers deposited from silane by …

Stabilized amorphous selenium (a-Se) photoconductive layers are currently used in the
majority of modern digital x-ray flat panel imaging detectors in mammography. We examine …
