Abstract
A layer of X-ray photoconductor is sandwiched between electrodes for conversion of X-radiation to an electrical signal. The photoconductor layer is biased, and films of zinc sulfide may be used between the layer and each electrode, to minimize dark current. Arrays of solid state radiation detectors utilizing the biased photoconductive conversion layer are also disclosed.
