Abstract:
Disclosed are a scintillator using semiconductor quantum dots, a method of manufacturing the scintillator, and a digital image diagnostic system employing the scintillator. In one aspect, the scintillator includes a metallic reflection film made of a metal configured to transmit an X-ray and reflecting visible light and having a plurality of voids formed in a thickness direction. The scintillator also includes a polymer film formed inside the plurality of voids and being configured to include a plurality of columnar structures to convert the X-ray into the visible light. The scintillator further includes semiconductor quantum dots dispersed in the polymer film and having a decay time of tens of nanoseconds.

Claim (Index 5):
A digital image diagnostic system, comprising:\n an X-ray tube configured to generate an X-ray; a scintillator configured to convert the X-ray generated by the X-ray tube into visible light; a photodiode configured to convert the visible light from the scintillator into an electrical signal; a controller configured to generate a diagnostic image by using the electrical signal output by the photodiode; and an output unit configured to output the diagnostic image generated by the controller, wherein the scintillator comprises:\n a metallic reflection film made of a metal configured to transmit the X-ray and reflect the visible light and having a plurality of voids formed in a thickness direction; \n a polymer film formed inside the plurality of voids and being configured to include a plurality of columnar structures to convert the X-ray into the visible light; and \n semiconductor quantum dots dispersed in the polymer film and having a decay time of tens of nanoseconds.
