Abstract
A radiation detector includes a top gate thin film transistor (TFT) including a source electrode, a drain electrode, a gate electrode, a TFT dielectric layer, a TFT semiconductive layer, and a TFT intrinsic amorphous silicon (a-Si) layer. The radiation detector also includes a capacitor including a first electrode, a second electrode substantially coplanar with the gate electrode, and a capacitor dielectric, the capacitor dielectric including a capacitor dielectric layer substantially coplanar with the TFT dielectric layer, a capacitor semiconductive layer substantially coplanar with the TFT semiconductive layer, and a capacitor a-Si layer substantially coplanar with the TFT a-Si layer.
