Abstract
A photodetector array (1) is provided comprising a plurality of pixels (10ij) between a supply line (4j) and a common electrode (2). Respective pixels (10ij) comprise a photon radiation sensitive element (11ij) arranged in a series connection with a switching element (20ij) characterized in that the series connection further includes a resistive element (30ij).
Claims14
A photodetector array, comprising a plurality of pixels between a supply line and a common electrode, respective pixels comprising a photon radiation sensitive element arranged in a series connection with a switching element characterized in that the series connection further includes a resistor, which has a resistive value in the range of 0.05 to 0.4 times a reference resistive value, being defined as the median value of the resistive values of the switching elements of the respective pixels in the array in their conductive state.
