The present invention relates to a solid-state radiation detector comprising a photosensitive sensor associated with a radiation converter or scintillator. The fields of application of this type of detector are notably radiology: radiography, fluoroscopy and mammography, but also nondestructive testing. The detector comprises a rigid entrance window (14) passed through by the first radiation upstream of the scintillator (13), the scintillator (13) being placed between the sensor (12) and the entrance window (14), the sensor (12) comprising a substrate (15) and photosensitive elements (16) placed on the substrate (15). According to the invention, the entrance window (14) is shaped so as to closely fit the form of the scintillator (13) and is fixed in a moisture-tight manner on the substrate (15) of the sensor (12).

La présente invention concerne un détecteur de rayonnement à l'état solide comportant un capteur photosensible associé à un convertisseur de rayonnement ou scintillateur. Les domaines d'application de ce type de détecteur sont notamment la radiologie : radiographie, fluoroscopie, mammographie, mais également le contrôle non destructif. Le détecteur comprend une fenêtre d'entrée (14) rigide traversée par le rayonnement en amont du scintillateur (13), le scintillateur (13) étant disposé entre le capteur (12) et la fenêtre d'entrée (14), le capteur (12) comprenant un substrat (15) et des éléments photosensibles (16) disposés sur le substrat (15). Selon l'invention, la fenêtre d'entrée (14) est mise en forme de manière à épouser la forme du scintillateur (13) et est fixée de façon étanche à l'humidité sur le substrat (15) du capteur (12).
