Abstract
An X-ray detector is provided. The X-ray detector includes multiple detector sub-modules. Each detector sub-module includes a semiconductor layer and multiple detector elements. A first detector element of the multiple detector elements includes a first electrode disposed on a first doped implant and a second detector element of the multiple detector elements includes a second electrode disposed on a second doped implant. The first and second detector elements are disposed on the semiconductor layer adjacent to each other with a gap therebetween. Each detector sub-module also includes wiring traces extending from one or more detector elements of the multiple detector elements to readout circuitry. The wiring traces are routed within the gap between the first and second electrodes. The first doped implant extends underneath a portion of the wiring traces is configured to shield the wiring traces from electrical activity occurring underneath due to absorption of an X-ray.
