Abstract
A photon counting radiation detector includes a cell structure including a substrate and an epitaxial layer provided on the substrate, radiation being incident on the epitaxial layer; an inclination θ of the substrate being set in a predetermined range, where tis a thickness of the substrate, tis a thickness of the epitaxial layer, L is a length of the substrate, and the inclination θ is an inclination of the substrate with respect to an incident direction of the radiation. The epitaxial layer is preferably one type selected from SiC, GaO, GaAs, GaN, diamond, and CdTe. Such a photon counting radiation detector is preferably a direct converting type.
