Abstract: An X-ray imaging array is described together with a method for its manufacture. The array is defined by a set of PN junctions in a silicon wafer that extend all the way through between the two surfaces of the wafer. The PN junctions are formed using neutron transmutation doping that is applied to P-type silicon through a mask, resulting in an array of N-type regions (that act as pixels) in a sea of P-type material. Through suitable placement of the biassing electrodes, a space charge region is formed that is narrower at the top surface, where X-rays enter the device, and wider at the lower surface. This ensures that most of the secondary electrons, generated by the X-ray as it passes through the wafer, get collected at the lower surface where they are passed to a charge readout circuit.
