Abstract
In an illustrated embodiment a radiation detector is to be arranged in front of a xeroradiographic cassette and yet to avoid adverse effects on the xerographic image. To achieve this the shielding layer for the cassette is a graphite layer and the electrode layer consists of a vacuum-deposited electrically conductive material having a low atomic number. Desirably the electrode layer has marginal zones which continuously decrease in thickness so that no sharp absorption contours are present which would be over-accentuated in xerographic image production. Because of the utilization of a graphite layer as a protective shield, the absorption of the radiation detector can be kept very small. Electrical contact with the vacuum deposited electrode layer may be by means of a graphite layer which is in electrical contact with the electrode layer.
