Abstract
An optical module that includes (a) an optical interface that includes an input surface and an output surface, and (b) a scintillator that has a flat surface. The scintillator is configured emit emitted light through the flat surface in response to an impingement of a charged particle on the scintillator. The flat surface is optically coupled to the input surface. The optical interface is configured to (i) receive the emitted light from the scintillator and (ii) output, via the output surface, output light. An optical interface refractive index substantially equals a scintillator refractive index.
