Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to a method and structure for directly manufacturing a cold cathode flat-panel X-ray detector on a scintillator, belonging to the field of flat-panel X-ray detectors. Background technique [0002] X-ray imaging is widely used in fields such as medicine, security inspection, non-destructive testing and industrial flaw detection. High-sensitivity flat-panel X-ray detectors are the key to low-dose X-ray imaging. At present, the mainstream flat-panel X-ray detectors use thin-film transistors to read photoelectric signals, but the X-ray detectors using thin-film transistors have complex structures and are prone to breakdown under high voltage, which affects their practical applications. In order to improve the spatial resolution and quantum detection efficiency, researchers began to use a vacuum tube composed of a cold cathode based on the field electron emission principle as a readout device to realize a flat-panel X-ray detector. F...
