Abstract
A scintillator layer () includes a plurality of scintillator pixels (), walls of non-scintillation material () surrounding each of the plurality of scintillator pixels, and at least one electrically conductive interconnect () for a pixel, wherein the at least one electrically conductive interconnect extends within a wall of the pixel along an entire depth of the wall. A multi-energy detector array () includes a detector tile () with an upper scintillator layer (), an upper photosensor () optically coupled to the upper scintillator layer, a lower scintillator layer () electrically coupled to the upper photosensor, and a lower photodetector () optically and electrically coupled to the lower scintillator layer. The lower scintillator layer includes at least one scintillator pixel () surrounded by at least one wall of non-scintillation material (), and the wall includes at least one electrically conductive interconnect () that extends from a top edge of the wall to a bottom edge of the wall.
