  • Scintillator panel and method of manufacturing radiation image sensor
    Patent number: 7618511
    Abstract: An auxiliary substrate 20 is overlapped onto a thin substrate 11, and substrate 11 and auxiliary substrate 20 are covered with an organic film 12. Thereafter, a scintillator 13 is formed on a scintillator forming portion 12A of organic film 12 that corresponds to substrate 11. Here, since thickness is added to substrate 11 by auxiliary substrate 20, the warping of substrate 11 is prevented and scintillator 13 is formed uniformly.
    Type: Grant
    Filed: March 5, 2004
    Date of Patent: November 17, 2009
    Assignee: Hamamatsu Photonics K.K.
    Inventors: Hiroto Sato, Takaharu Suzuki, Masahiro Suganuma

  • Radiation image sensor and making method of same
    Patent number: 7067817
    Abstract: An image sensor assembly is mounted and fixed on a mount substrate with an adhesive, and a light sensitive portion of the image sensor assembly is located so as to reach the vicinity of at least one peripheral region. A moisture-proof protective film to cover a scintillator layer of the image sensor assembly is laid so as to cover the scintillator layer over a side wall to which the light sensitive portion is in proximity, up to the back side of a substrate of the image sensor assembly, and this portion on the back side is sandwiched between the image sensor assembly and the mount substrate so as to be fixed.
