摘要
Polycrystalline CdTe layers were directly deposited on the Medipix2 readout chip by physical vapor deposition using a Riber molecular beam epitaxy 2300. Sb2Te3 was evaporated as backside contact material, resulting in an M-pi-p diode structure comprising the pixel contact material, the intentionally undoped CdTe, and Sb2Te3. It was possible to achieve x-ray images at 60 kVp. In addition, thermally oxidized Si wafers were coated with a comparable M-pi-p structure grown under identical conditions, to investigate electrical properties of the films. The specific resistance of the layers was found to be 3.85 x 10(8) Omega cm. (C) 2010 American Institute of Physics. [doi:10.1063/1.3492694]
