Abstract
A two-dimensional image read-out device comprising a photoconducting layer, a plurality of X stripe electrodes applied on one surface of the photoconducting layer and arranged parallel with each other, and a plurality of Y electrodes applied on the other surface of the photoconducting layer and arranged parallel with each other in a direction perpendicular to the X electrodes. Both the X and Y electrodes are made of electrically conductive material, and the X or Y electrodes through which light from an image enters are made of transparent or translucent material. The light-entering side of the two-dimensional image read-out device is covered with an opaque material which allows the passage of light only through the picture elements which are formed at the intersections of the X and Y electrodes.
