Abstract: The invention relates to a method of manufacturing a rare-earth (RE) doped alkaline-earth silicon nitride phosphor (AE 2 Si 5 N 8 ) of a stoichiometric composition, said method comprising the step of selecting one or more compounds each comprising at least one element of the group comprising the rare-earth elements (RE), the alkaline-earth elements (AE), silicon (Si) and nitrogen (N) and together comprising the necessary elements to form the rare-earth doped alkaline-earth silicon nitride phosphor (AE 2 Si 5 N 8 :IRE) bringing the compounds at an elevated temperature in reaction for forming the rare-earth doped alkaline-earth silicon nitride phosphor (AE 2 Si 5 N 8 :RE), a small amount of oxygen, whether intentionally or not-intentionally added, being incorporated in the rare-earth doped alkaline-earth silicon nitride phosphor (AE 2 Si 5 N 8 :RE) thus formed. 
According to the invention the creation of defects by formation of a non stoichiometric oxygen containing phosphor is at least partly prevented by partly substituting for the ions (AE, Si, N) of the alkaline-earth silicon nitride phosphor (AE 2 Si 5 N 8 ) suitable further elements of the periodic system by which vacancies are created, filled or annihilated resulting in the formation of a modified alkaline-earth silicon nitride phosphor (AE 2 Si 5 N 8 ) having a stoichiometric composition. In this way a modified phosphor is obtained having excellent and stable optical properties. The invention further comprises a modified phosphor obtainable by a method according to the invention and a radiation-emitting device comprising such a phosphor.

Abstract: The application describes an X-ray detector, which uses direct X-ray conversion (DiCo) combined with CMOS pixel circuits. DiCo materials have to be used with high voltage to achieve a high field strength. This makes the sensor prone to leakage currents, which falsify the measured charge result. Moreover, most direct conversion materials suffer from large residual signals that lead to temporal artifacts (ghost images) in an X-ray image sequence. A circuit is described, which senses the sensor's dark current including residual signals from previous exposures before the sensor is exposed (again) to X-ray, and freezes relevant circuit parameters at the end of the sensing phase in such way, that the dark current (leakage current and residual signal) can still be drained during exposure. Therefore, the charge pulses generated in the sensor due to X-ray exposure can be integrated without charges carried by the leakage current or residual signal, thus obtaining a more accurate estimate of the deposited X-ray energy.
