Description
Large area amorphous silicon image sensor arrays are important for X-ray medical imaging and document scanning as well as a variety of other applications where large sensor size is required. The paper first summarizes the present state of the flat panel X-ray imager technology, and compares the two main approaches for X-ray detection. The authors then describe the performance of a new, large area, high resolution, radiographic imager based o a single amorphous silicon array with 2,304 x 3,200 pixels, and an active area of 30 x 40 cm (12 x 16 inches)
