Basic knowledge of DR flat panel detectors, the difference between amorphous and amorphous silicon

In modern digital photography, X-rays are converted into electrical signals by a flat-panel detector, so the flat-panel detector has a great influence on the imaging quality of the DR system. Therefore, we should pay special attention when choosing a flat panel detector.
There are currently two materials for DR flat panel detectors: amorphous silicon and amorphous solar. So what’s the difference between the two? Today we will briefly talk about it.
Amorphous drying does not produce visible light, so there is no influence of light, so higher resolution can be obtained in terms of spatial resolution. Amorphous silicon flat panel detectors will scatter visible light, which will affect the spatial resolution. The new production process in Suixian will reduce scattering, but not all of them will be eliminated.
