Abstract
A flat panel X-ray detector, including an X-ray-electric-charge converting film containing a metal halide and serving to convert an incident X-ray into an electric charge, a pair of electrodes formed on both surfaces of the X-ray-electric-charge converting film, and a blocking layer formed in contact with at least one surface of the X-ray-electric-charge converting film and containing a substance selected from the group consisting of a metal oxide, a metal nitride, a metal halide oxide, a first mixture of at least two of these materials, and a second mixture of a metal halide and any of these materials.
