Patent ID: 7829858

Claim:
A radiation detecting apparatus in which a plurality of pixels are arranged, each pixel having a conversion element converting a radiation incident from a side opposite to an insulating substrate into an electric signal and a switching element connected to the conversion element, the conversion element including a first electrode disposed on a first surface side of the insulating substrate, a second electrode disposed on the first electrode and a semiconductor layer disposed between the first electrode and the second electrode, wherein the switching element has a source electrode, a drain electrode, a semiconductor layer having a channel region, and a gate electrode, and wherein a light-transmitting interlayer insulating layer is disposed on the switching element, and a portion of the first electrode of the conversion element is disposed over the light-transmitting interlayer insulating layer and covers at least a portion of the channel region, and wherein the first electrode is formed from a light transmitting electroconductive material transmitting light emitted from the insulating substrate side, and the switching element has a light shielding member which prevents incidence of the light from the insulating substrate side to the switching element.
