Abstract
A method and apparatus for improving detection of radiation emitted from object that includes a radiation detection sensor with a substrate and an array of columns protruding from a top surface of the substrate. A radiation sensitive layer, such as TLC, and a thermal conversion material, such as an absorber, are disposed upon a top surface of the columns within the array thereby producing an array of radiation detectors. The columns provide thermal isolation between the radiation detectors and the substrate, and spatial separation of columns within the array provide radiant and thermal isolation between the radiation detectors upon the tops of individual columns. Producing an image of the array of radiation detectors allows detection of the radiation emitted from an object.
