Fabrication Method for Fused Multi-layer Amorphous Selenium Sensor
This novel technology uses blocking layers to dampen electronic noise and the effect on imaging, for improved optical and x-ray sensing
Background:
Amorphous selenium (a-Se) has been commercialized both as an optical sensor and direct x-ray detector, and a-Se with avalanche gain has also been proposed for use in an indirect x-ray detector. Advantages...
