Abstract
A planar image detector with a number of photosensor elements arranged like a matrix, the photosensor elements being activated by at least one associated switching element and respectively exhibiting at least one memory element with a predetermined capacity. A predetermined number of phototransistors each have a gate electrode that exhibits at least one gap in a gate metallization thereof and arranged between the source electrode and the drain electrode. The gap produces a space that is reduced in terms of field strength that can be realized simply in terms of production of such planar image detector.
