Abstract :
The concepts of a new detector operating on gaseous-solid state electronic principles for slot-scan imaging of ionizing radiation in two dimensions, is presented. The detector geometry, implemented both with the kinestatic and time delay integration (TDI) principles is a promising candidate for a large number of imaging applications. The proposed detector technology may have significant applications in several areas of medical, industrial and aerospace imaging
