Abstract

A detector module for an x-ray detector is disclosed. In an embodiment, the detector module includes a plurality of sensor boards arranged adjacent to one another on a module carrier. Each sensor board is arranged in a stack formation and includes a sensor layer with a sensor surface, to which a bias voltage can be applied in order to detect x-ray radiation. A voltage supply line is arranged in the stack formation along a lateral surface of the stack formation of each sensor board in order to apply the bias voltage. Moreover, an x-ray detector is disclosed for recording an image of an object irradiated by x-ray radiation, the x-ray detector including a plurality a number of detector modules arranged adjacent to one another.
