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 6):
A method of manufacturing a scintillator, comprising:\n forming a metallic reflection film made of a metal configured to transmit an X-ray and reflect visible light and having a plurality of voids formed in a thickness direction, and an auxiliary metallic reflection film made of the metal to block one end of the metallic reflection film corresponding to a direction in which the X-ray is incident so as to guide a travelling direction of the visible light after reflections inside the plurality of voids; and forming a polymer film having a plurality of columnar structures by immersing the metallic reflection film into a polymer liquid in which semiconductor quantum dots having a decay time of tens of nanoseconds are dispersed so that the polymer liquid permeates into the plurality of voids or by pouring the polymer liquid on the metallic reflection film.
