Abstract
A radiation detector () includes a semiconductor element () for generating positive holes and electrons, a cathode () formed on a first surface of the semiconductor element () and a plurality of segmented anodes () formed on a second surface of the semiconductor element (), the second surface being in opposed relation to the first surface. Additionally, a plurality of segmented steering electrodes () are positioned adjacent the plurality of segmented anodes (). Moreover, a plurality of doping atoms are located above at least a portion of the plurality of segmented anodes () for reducing the voltage difference between the plurality of segmented anodes () and the plurality of segmented steering electrodes ().
