Abstract:
1. A sensor arrangements for detecting radiation having a layer sequence which contains, in the order indicated: a holding substrates which is permeable to the detectable radiation, at least in regions, or produces the detectable radiation when radiation impinges thereon and which holds a plurality of detection elements in the sensor arrangement, at least one auxiliary layers which is permeable to the detectable radiation and extends continuously over a set of the plurality of detection elements or which contains separate regions which are respectively associated with a detection element, a detection layers with separate detection regions which are contained in a detection element and respectively contain at least one semiconductor component which is sensitive to the detectable radiation, an insulating layer with separate insulating regions for electrically insulating the detection regions from a point of contact having electrically conductive connections and pads fitted on a free side, the pads being electrically connected to connecting points which are routed to the semiconductor components, and wherein the holding substrate contains at least one of: a material which converts impinging particle radiation or radiation which is high in energy as compared with the detectable radiation into the detectable radiation, and a material which converts X ray radiation into radiation which can be detected with a pin diode.
