Abstract

An object is to provide that a moisture resistance property is maintained, and reduction of sharpness is further avoided. Disclosed is a scintillator plate possessing a support and provided thereon a phosphor layer, and further a protective film provided on the phosphor layer to protect the phosphor layer, wherein an arithmetical mean slope angle Δa of surface roughness of the protective film is 0.01-0.4.

Claims (5)

1. A scintillator plate comprising a support and provided thereon a phosphor layer comprising cesium iodide as a base material, and further a first protective film having a moisture permeability of more than 0 and not more than 50 g/m 2 · day, provided on the phosphor layer to protect the phosphor layer,

wherein the first protective film has a layer structure composed of an adhesion layer, an evaporated film, a protective layer, and a transparent layer for transmission of fluorescence, and

wherein the evaporated film is provided between the adhesion layer and the protective layer, and the transparent layer as a surface layer of the first protective film has an arithmetical mean slope angle Δa of surface roughness of 0.01 -0.4.

2. The scintillator plate of claim 1 , wherein the arithmetical mean slope angle Δa is 0.02-0.2.

3. The scintillator plate of claim 1 , wherein a second protective film also having a moisture permeability of more than 0 and not more than 50 g/m 2 ·day, is provided on a side of the support opposite the phosphor layer, the first protective film and the second protective film each extend beyond edges of the support, and peripheral portions of the first protective film and the second protective film are adhered to each other.
