Disclosed is an edge-on photon counting detector and a method for manufacturing a charge collecting side of such detector. The edge-on photon counting detector comprises a semi-conducting substrate. The semi-conducting substrate comprises, a first end adapted to face an x-ray source and a second end opposite the first end in the direction of incoming x-rays, and at least one strip having N depth segments, N&#x2265;2, each of the depth segments comprising a charge collecting metal electrode and a charge collecting side comprising doped regions and insulating regions, wherein each of the charge collecting metal electrodes is arranged over a corresponding doped region and is connected to a respective routing trace arranged on the insulating regions, the respective routing trace being adapted to conduct signals from the charge collecting metal electrode to a read-out pad E, connectable to front-end electronics, arranged at the second end.
