Perovskite is a promising alternative to conventional semiconductor materials. However, the feasibility of its combination with high-speed pixelated CMOS arrays is still unknown. To address this issue ...

X-rays can be an incredibly powerful medical tool, but as evidenced by the lead aprons we don when using them, they also come with potential health risks. To solve for this, researchers have now ...

High detection sensitivity: A flexible metal–organic framework is incorporated into a prototype wearable X-ray detector. (Courtesy: adapted from Nano Letters 10.1021/acs.nanolett.1c02336, 2021) A ...

Detectors that are presently used for mammograms and for dose measurements in radiotherapy are often rigid, causing errors in screening, or dose delivery to surrounding healthy tissue. This has raised ...

New bismuth-based organic-inorganic hybrid materials show exceptional sensitivity and long-term stability as X-ray detectors, significantly more sensitive than commercial X-ray detectors. In addition, ...

A new X-ray detector prototype could dramatically reduce the radiation exposure and its associated health risks for healthcare workers and patients, at the same time boosting the resolution of medical ...
