ABSTRACT:
An X-ray detector comprising a scintillator layer (38) provided for each pixel and adapted for converting X radiation into light, a storage capacitor (15) for storing, as electric charge, the light converted in the scintillator layer (38), and a partition layer (39) partitioning the adjoining scintillator layers (38) provided to the respective pixels. The scintillator layer (38) contains a fluorescent material (I), the partition layer contains a second phosphor (P2) having optical characteristics different from those of the fluorescent material (IP1). The wavelength of the fluorescent light emitted from the second phosphor (P2) includes a component which is equal to or longer than the shortest wavelength of the fluorescent light emitted from the fluorescent material (IP1).
