| Zusammenfassung: | A high efficiency radiation detector (40) employs longitudinally extending converter elements (42) receiving longitudinally propagating radiation to produce high-energetic electrons received by detector structures in interstitial spaces. The secondary electron generation in this architecture allows great freedom in selection of converter materials and thickness. A variety of detector mechanisms may be used including ionization-type detectors or scintillation-type detectors. |
