Abstract
A radiation imager includes a light sensitive imaging array, a barrier layer formed over the light sensitive imaging array, a continuous polymer layer formed over the barrier layer, and a scintillator formed directly on the continuous polymer layer. The continuous polymer layer improves the adherence of the scintillator by reducing delamination especially under adverse environmental conditions.
