A pixilated scintillator array for a radiation detector of an imaging system
includes
a plurality of scintillator pixels arranged side by side in an array. The scintillator
pixels are separated from adjacent scintillator pixels by gaps. Each scintillator
pixels includes a top surface, a plurality of side surfaces, and a first layer
covering the top surface and the side surfaces of each scintillator pixel. The
first layer is formed from a smoothing coating. A second layer formed from a reflective
metal coating covers the first layer, and a third layer formed from a barrier coating
covers the second layer.
