Invited Speaker Seminar, Electron Devices; Ultra-high resolution amorphous selenium-CMOS hybrid X-ray imagers for bioengineering applications
July 15, 2015 @ 10:00 am - 11:00 am
Co-sponsored by: ECE Department, Concordia University
X-ray imagers couple light-sensing active-matrix arrays to an X-ray sensitive scintillator and typically have a pixel pitch of at least 50-μm. Achieving smaller pixel pitch, while desirable for better spatial resolution, is challenging because of the well- known tradeoff between the scintillator’s X-ray absorption properties and spatial resolution. As an alternative, direct-conversion imagers convert X-rays directly into electronic charge and overcome the scintillator thickness tradeoff by employing thick semiconductors with an applied bias that yields both high X-ray absorption and high spatial resolution. Using direct-conversion materials
