Abstract:
The demand for large area, low cost and flexible high-energy radiation detection systems for medical imaging and public security, has pushed the research to develop novel detectors combining high sensitivity materials and low-cost fabrication processes. Organic/hybrid semiconducting thin films can be employed as direct ionizing radiation detectors, allowing to exploit their unique functionalities, e.g. printability over large area from solution, onto flexible substrates and tunability of performance and response by appropriate material nano-structuring.
