Abstract
The present invention discloses a semiconductor based detector for radiation with a small but effective barrier between the radiation sensitive volume in the semiconductor and the regions and junctions with readout circuitry, and with no or a lower barrier between the semiconductor substrate and the regions and junctions adapted and meant for collecting the charge carriers generated by the radiation in the semiconductor substrate.
