摘要
Polycrystalline HgI2 thick film detectors are among the leading semiconductor materials to be used as direct converters in X-ray digital radiography. Their properties along with a survey of the properties of alternative materials such as PbI2 and A-Se will also be given. The preparation of HgI2 detector plates, using direct sublimation will be described. The microstructure of the thick films showing a columnar morphology, as determined by SEM measurements will be shown. The X-ray response to radiological X-ray generators of 60 and 80 kVp using the current integration mode will be reported. Finally some actual X-ray images taken at Xerox-Parc using HgI2 polycrystalline detectors will be shown.
