Non‐stationary model of oblique x‐ray incidence in amorphous selenium detectors: I. Point spread function

Abstract

In previous work, a theoretical model of the point spread function (PSF) for oblique x‐ray incidence in amorphous selenium (a‐Se) detectors was proposed. The purpose of this paper is to develop a complementary model that includes two additional features. First, the incidence angle and the directionality of ray incidence are calculated at each position, assuming a divergent x‐ray beam geometry. This approach allows the non‐stationarity of the PSF to be modeled. Second, this paper develops a framework that is applicable to a digital system, unlike previous work which did not model the presence of a thin‐film transistor (TFT) array.
