Abstract: A neutron detector including a plurality of layers of converter material and a plurality of layers of detector material. Each layer of converter material can be immediately adjacent to at least one layer of detector material and each layer of detector material can be immediately adjacent to at least one layer of converter material. The neutron detector may further include a read out integrated circuit (ROIC) that is electrically coupled to the plurality of layers of detector material. A value output by the ROIC may be indicative of a neutron interacting with a layer of converter material from amongst the plurality of layers of converter material.

Abstract: A method of fabricating a transmission target for an X-ray system is provided. The method includes forming a substrate and etching at least one via in the substrate. The method includes depositing a layer of seed metal on the surface of the substrate. The method includes filling the vias with a target metal to form target metal blocks.
