  • Patent number: 4778985
    Abstract: An imaging plate structure having a first conductive layer, a first insulative layer, a photoconductive layer, a second insulative layer, and a second conductive layer. The first insulative layer is integrally affixed to the side of the first conductive layer. The photoconductive layer is integrally affixed to the other side of the first insulative layer. The second insulative layer is integrally affixed to the other side of the photoconductive layer. The second conductive layer is integrally affixed to the other side of the second insulative layer. Both the first and the second insulative layers have a thickness suitable for preventing charge tunnelling therethrough. These first and second insulative layers are made of a true insulator material. The photoconductive layer is comprised of a photoconductor that is responsive to radiation of known energy. The first conductive layer and the first insulative layer are transmissive with respect to the radiation acting on the imaging plate.
