Abstract

L'invention concerne un module de capteur de rayonnement (1) comprenant une pluralité d'éléments de détection de rayonnement (2) disposés sur un substrat (4). Le module peut être mis en oeuvre selon un mode de fonctionnement selon lequel les éléments coopèrent pendant l'utilisation aux fins de production d'un signal de sortie combiné indiquant un niveau global de rayonnement tombant sur les éléments (2). Dans un exemple, chaque élément (2) comprend une surface d'entrée de rayonnement (16) disposée de manière être opposée au substrat (4) et une surface opposée (18) disposée de manière à être en face du substrat (4). Chaque élément (2) est disposé de manière à établir une connexion électrique (8) avec le substrat (4) par le biais de la surface opposée (18), laissant les côtés (19) de l'élément (2) sensiblement libres, de manière que les éléments adjacents (2) puissent être proches les uns des autres, afin de former un agencement en mosaïque de ceux-ci (2) couvrant une zone importante.
