Abstract
An X-ray image intensifier includes an input surface and an output surface facing the input surface. The input surface has a base and a phosphor layer formed on the base and having a predetermined effective radius. The phosphor layer includes a thickest portion which has a thickness about 105 to 115% of a thickness of a center of the layer and is located in a region spaced from the center toward the periphery of the layer by a distance about 60 to 80% of the effective radius. The phosphor layer is formed so that the thickness is gradually increased from the center to the thickest portion and a region between the thickest portion and the periphery of the layer has a thickness about 50 to 100% of the thickness of the thickest portion.
