Abstract
The present invention relates to a detector (') for detecting ionizing radiation, comprising: a directly converting semi-conductor layer () for producing charge carriers in response to incident ionizing radiation; and a plurality of electrodes () corresponding to pixels for registering the charge carriers and generate a signal corresponding to registered charge carriers; wherein an electrode of the plurality of electrodes () is structured to two-dimensionally intertwine with at least two adjacent electrodes to register the charge carriers by said electrode and by at least one adjacent electrode. The present invention further relates to a detection method and to an imaging apparatus.
