Abstract
An X-ray detector comprising a scintillator layer () provided for each pixel and adapted for converting X radiation into light, a storage capacitor () for storing, as electric charge, the light converted in the scintillator layer (), and a partition layer () partitioning the adjoining scintillator layers () provided to the respective pixels. The scintillator layer () contains a fluorescent material (I), the partition layer contains a second phosphor (P) having optical characteristics different from those of the fluorescent material (IP). The wavelength of the fluorescent light emitted from the second phosphor (P) includes a component which is equal to or longer than the shortest wavelength of the fluorescent light emitted from the fluorescent material (IP).
