ABSTRACT:
An improved radiographic imaging screen is disclosed in which microscopic high-Z metal particles are coated with or dispersed in luminescent material and formed as a layer on a substrate. The complete surrounding of each particle with the luminescent material assures that secondary electrons emitted from the particles from absorption of incident radiation photons will encounter the luminescent material regardless of the direction of emission of the electrons.
