    Abstract: An apparatus for generating an image may include a plurality of scintillator layers configured to convert an incident beam into an optical signal; a plurality of micro cells configured to turn on or off depending on whether or not the micro cells detect the optical signal; a reaction depth determining unit configured to detect a decay pattern of the optical signal, on the basis of on/off signals of the micro cells, and configured to determine a type of the scintillator layers with which the incident beam has reacted; and/or a reading unit configured to decide an occurrence location of the incident beam and then generates a photographed image.

    Abstract: A silicon photomultiplier detector cell may include a photodiode region and a readout circuit region formed on a same substrate. The photodiode region may include a first semiconductor layer exposed on a surface of the silicon photomultiplier detector cell and doped with first type impurities; a second semiconductor layer doped with second type impurities; and/or a first epitaxial layer between the first semiconductor layer and the second semiconductor layer. The first epitaxial layer may contact the first semiconductor layer and the second semiconductor layer. The first epitaxial layer may be doped with the first type impurities at a concentration lower than a concentration of the first type impurities of the first semiconductor layer.
