Pang, J. C. et al. Vertical matrix perovskite X-ray detector for effective multi-energy discrimination. Light: Science & Applications, 11, 935-944 (2022). DOI: 10.1038/s41377-022-00791-y.
Multi-energy X-ray detection is sought after for a wide range of applications including medical imaging
security checking and industrial flaw inspection. Perovskite X-ray detectors are superior in terms of high sensitivity and low detection limit
which lays a foundation for multi-energy discrimination. However
the extended capability of the perovskite detector for multi-energy X-ray detection is challenging and has never been reported. Herein we report the design of vertical matrix perovskite X-ray detectors for multi-energy detection
based on the attenuation behavior of X-ray within the detector and machine learning algorithm. This platform is independent of the complex X-ray source components that constrain the energy discrimination capability. We show that the incident X-ray spectra could be accurately reconstructed from the conversion matrix and measured photocurrent response. Moreover
the detector could produce a set of images containing the density-graded information under single exposure
and locate the concealed position for all low-
medium- and high-density substances. Our findings suggest a new generation of X-ray detectors with features of multi-energy discrimination
density differentiation
and contrast-enhanced imaging.
