Abstract: It is an object to provide an imaging method and system. According to an embodiment, an imaging method comprises emitting neutrons into a material, wherein the material converts at least part of the emitted neutrons into a first plurality of gamma ray photons, and wherein at least part of the emitted neutrons pass through the material. Based on the neutrons passed through the material and the gamma ray photons, at least one property of the material can be deduced. An imaging method and an imaging system are provided.

Abstract: An object to provide a radiation detector and method for manufacturing a radiation detector. According to an embodiment, a radiation detector includes: a photodiode layer having at least one pixel; and a scintillator layer including at least one geometrical shape including a scintillating material and a polymer, wherein the scintillating material is configured to convert incident ionising radiation into nonionising electromagnetic radiation, and wherein the at least one geometrical shape is configured to guide at least part of the converted electromagnetic radiation into the at least one pixel. A radiation detector and a method for manufacturing a radiation detector are also disclosed.

Abstract: A radiation sensor element comprises a support plate, having a front face, extending substantially along a base plane, defining a lateral extension of the radiation sensor element; a substrate, having a basal face, an interconnection face opposite the basal face, and an edge face connecting the basal face and the interconnection face; a sensor tile, having a back face facing the interconnection face; a copper-pillar interconnection element between the interconnection face and the back face; and a non-conductive film extending between the interconnection face and the back face. The front face comprises, laterally beyond the edge face, a depression extending in a thickness direction perpendicular to the base plane, and the non-conductive film comprises an edge protrusion part extending in the depression.
