Abstract
Provided is a scintillator panel having excellent sharpness and graininess. In the scintillator panel, the scintillator panel and a surface of a planar light receiving element can be brought into uniform contact with each other within the surface, and deterioration of sharpness between the scintillator panel surface and the surface of the planar light receiving element is reduced. Furthermore, a method for manufacturing such scintillator panel is also provided. The scintillator panel is provided by arranging a phosphor layer composed of phosphor columnar crystal on a polymer film substrate. A leading end portion of the phosphor columnar crystal is flattened by pressurized thermal processing.
Claims7
A method for manufacturing the scintillator panel,
- wherein only the leading end portion of the phosphor columnar crystal is flattened by pressurized thermal treatment in which both heat and pressure are applied simultaneously, and
- wherein an average roughness of a surface of the phosphor columnar crystal is 1.0 μm or less.
