Abstract
Scintillator arrays and methods of making scintillator arrays are provided. One scintillator array includes a scintillator substrate having a plurality of scintillators spaced apart by gaps within the scintillator substrate and a smoothing layer overlaying a surface of the scintillator substrate within the gaps. The smoothing layer includes an organically modified silicate. The scintillator array also includes an optical reflector layer overlaying a surface of the smoothing layer within the gaps.
