Abstract
This method and system provide an imaging system for producing static and dynamic images from electromagnetic radiation such as x-rays and high-energy electrons. The detector includes a top electrode layer, a photoconducting layer and a bottom electrode layer. Within the bottom electrode layers are a set of pixel circuits for sensing the radiation. The photoconducting layer has a thickness at least three times greater than the pitch of one of the individual pixel circuits.
