図5は、実施例1に係る平板枠体製造工程を説明する斜視図である。実施例1に係る平板枠体を製造するには、第1平板4aをy方向に配列させる。この第1平板4aは、図5に示すように、その長手方向はx方向に沿っており、短手方向はz方向に沿っており、厚さ方向はy方向に沿っている短冊状の部材である。また、この第1平板4aには、z方向に沿った溝5aを複数有している。単一の第1平板4aに注目すると、溝5aは、略等間隔に並んでおり、かつ溝5aの開口部は、z方向について同一方向に設けられている。また、図5に示すように、第2平板4bの長手方向はy方向に沿っており、短手方向はz方向に沿っており、厚さ方向はx方向に沿っている短冊状の部材である。また、この第2平板4bには、z方向に沿った溝5bを複数有している。単一の第2平板4bに注目すると、溝5bは、略等間隔に並んでおり、かつ溝5bの開口部は、z方向について同一方向に設けられている。平板枠体製造工程においては、第2平板4bをz方向に沿って第1平板4aに近接させることにより、両平板4a,4bの溝5a,および溝5bとを互いに嵌合させる。こうして、第2平板4bがx方向に配列されるとともに、第1平板4aと、第2平板4bとが一体化され、図4に示すような両平板4a,4bが格子状に配列された平板枠体6が製造される。
次に、この平板枠体6を型枠7にはめ込む。この平板枠体はめ込み工程の説明に先立って、型枠7の構成について説明する。図6は、実施例1に係る型枠の構成を説明する斜視図である。実施例1に係る型枠7には、z方向上向きに開口7aが備えられている。この開口7aは、z方向から見たとき、矩形となっており、そのz方向の深さは、実施例1に係るライトガイドのz方向の厚さと略同一となっている。なお、開口7aのz方向についての底部は、平面状の閉塞端面7bとなっており、その閉塞端面7bには、押し込み栓などを必ずしも設ける必要はない。そして、型枠7は、例えばフッ素樹脂で構成することができる。
続いて、開口7aに液体の熱硬化性樹脂を流し込む。図8,および図9は、実施例1に係る流し込み工程を説明する断面図である。図8に示すように、液体の熱硬化性樹脂8がz方向から型枠7の開口7aに向けて流し込まれる。この熱硬化性樹脂8は、硬化前であるので液状であり、容易に開口7aを満たすことができる。そして、この熱硬化性樹脂8は、予め脱泡処理がなされたものであり、かつ硬化すると蛍光を透過させるよう、透明な固形樹脂となる。なお、この流し込み工程において、開口7aにはめ込まれた平板枠体6は、この熱硬化性樹脂8に沈没することになる。したがって、平板枠体6のz方向における上端は、熱硬化性樹脂8で覆われている。型枠7全体で見れば、熱硬化性樹脂8は、表面張力によって開口7aから盛り上がっている。なお、熱硬化性樹脂は、本発明の硬化性樹脂に相当する。具体的には、例えば、エポキシ系樹脂を使用することができる。
そして、型枠7の開口7aを被覆するように整形部材9を載置する。まず、この整形部材9の構成について説明する。整形部材9は、図9に示すように平面状の底面9aを有している。この底面9aのx方向の長さは、第1平板4aの長手方向における長さよりも長くなっており、同様に、底面9aのy方向の長さは、第2平板4bの長手方向における長さよりも長くなっている。したがって、整形部材9の底面9aは、型枠7の開口7aよりも大きくなるように設定されている。そして、型枠7は、例えばフッ素樹脂で構成することができる。また、整形部材9の側端部のうち、底面9aの側辺9cに隣接する部分には、底面9aからz方向に向かうにしたがって肉薄となるテーパ部9bが備えられている。
次に、整形部材9を載置したまま型枠7を所定温度に保たれたオーブンに入庫させ、熱硬化性樹脂を硬化させる。型枠7の開口7aの内部においては、平板枠体6が固形樹脂11に埋め込まれたライトガイド4が形成されることになる。また、整形部材9における底面9aの側辺9cでは、膨出部10も同時に硬化し、膨出部10は、固形樹脂のバリ部12となる。このバリ部12は、開口7aから膨出した盛り上がり部12aと、この盛り上がり部12aと、開口7aの内部に延在するライトガイド4とを連接するチャネル部12bを備えている。その様子は、図10(b)のようになっている。このとき、図中の符号10は、符号12として読みかえるものとする。この時点で整形部材9は、フィルム状のチャンネル部12bを介して、整形部材9に支持されている。
続いて、整形部材9をz方向の型枠7から離反する方向に持ち上げる(図11参照)。整形部材9に備えられたテーパ部9bは、底面9aからz方向に向かうにしたがって次第に肉薄となっているので、テーパ部9bと盛り上がり部12aとは係合していることになる。そこで、整形部材9をz方向の型枠7から離反する方向に持ち上げると、整形部材9とともに盛り上がり部12aも同時に持ち上がる。盛り上がり部12aは、チャネル部12bを通じてライトガイド4に連接しているのであるから、図11に示すように、整形部材9をz方向の型枠7から離反する方向に持ち上げれば、それに伴ってライトガイド4は型枠7の開口7aから引き抜かれ、ライトガイド4は型枠7から離型される。
そして、ライトガイド4に連接したバリ部12がそこから切り離される。具体的には、チャネル部12bがライトガイド4から切り離される。チャネル部12bは、フィルム状のものであるので、この切り離しに特に工具は必要とはされない。
最後に、ライトガイド4における整形部材9に接していた面と、型枠7の閉塞端面7bに接していた面の両面を研磨し、実施例1に係るライトガイドは完成となる。
実施例1で説明した構成の放射線検出器1を製造するには、まず、シンチレータ結晶を2次元的に配列して、シンチレータ結晶層を形成する。具体的には、第1反射板r,および第2反射板sを組み立てて、反射板格子枠体21を形成して、この反射板格子枠体21が収容可能な凹部22aを有する容器22を用意する。図12(a)に示すように、凹部22aにフィルム23を敷き、その上から反射板格子枠体21aを載置する。そして、反射板格子枠体21aが分割する各区画にシンチレータ結晶24を次々と挿入することで、単一のシンチレータ結晶層2Aが形成される。なお、図12において、反射板格子枠体21を構成する反射板の枚数を省略している。以降の図においても、同様に反射板の枚数を省略するものとする。また、図12,図13は、zx平面の断面図であるが、実施例2においては、yz面の断面も同様の構成となっている。
そして、完成したシンチレータ2に実施例1に係るライトガイド4とを接着剤で接着することにより、z方向に積層させ、シンチレータ2とライトガイド4とを光学的に結合させる。このとき、ライトガイド4における樹脂ブロック4cの各々と、シンチレータ2におけるシンチレータ結晶dの各々とを1対1で結合させる。最後に、PMT3の蛍光検出面とを接着剤で接着することにより、z方向に積層させ、ライトガイド4とを光学的に結合させる。この工程によってライトガイド4はシンチレータ2で発した蛍光をPMT3に中継できるようになる。こうして、実施例2に係る放射線検出器は、完成となる。なお、z方向は、本発明の所定方向に相当する。
