Abstract
A scintillator device includes a scintillator layer on a substrate and a foil layer that covers the scintillator layer. The foil layer overlaps an outer edge of the scintillator layer and is adhered to a portion of the substrate surrounding the scintillator layer to form at least part of a first moisture barrier between the scintillator layer and the surrounding environment. A sealant overlaps an outer edge of the foil layer onto a portion of the substrate surrounding the foil layer to form at least part of a second moisture barrier between the scintillator layer and the surrounding environment.
