Solution Overview
Problem
Current radiation detectors face challenges in achieving high sensitivity while maintaining stable and noise-suppressed detection, particularly as the surface area of the detecting part is increased, leading to increased noise in the detection signal.
Innovation Solution
The radiation detector incorporates a transmitting part with a first conductive layer, a second conductive layer, and an organic layer, where at least a portion of the organic layer is between the first and second conductive layers, allowing for increased surface area of the detecting part without increasing noise, by forming a second capacitance with reduced electrical capacitance, thereby enhancing detection sensitivity and suppressing noise.
Engineering Contradictions & Design Principles
Engineering Contradiction Analysis
1Measurement precision
If the surface area of the detecting part is increased to enhance detection sensitivity, then the detection sensitivity is improved, but the noise in the detection signal increases
Solution Approach 1:
The patent divides the detector into two distinct functional parts: a detecting part for capturing radiation signals and a transmitting part for signal transmission. The transmitting part includes first and second conductive layers separated by an organic layer, forming a capacitor structure that is electrically connected to the detecting part. This segmentation allows the detecting part to be optimized for sensitivity while the transmitting part manages noise through its capacitive structure, thereby resolving the contradiction between increased detection area and noise suppression.
2Measurement precision
If the surface area of the detecting part is increased to improve detection sensitivity, then the detection sensitivity is improved, but the electrical capacitance increases leading to signal degradation
Solution Approach 1:
The organic layer acts as an intermediary dielectric material between the first and second conductive layers in the transmitting part. This intermediary structure forms a capacitor that electrically connects the detecting part to the external circuit while providing electrical isolation. The capacitive structure managed through this intermediary layer allows the detector to maintain low electrical capacitance even when the detecting part surface area is increased, thus preserving signal stability while improving detection sensitivity.
