  bibo_abstract:
  - We demonstrate that nanophotonic scintillators based on three-dimensional (3D)
    photonic crystals can overcome the longstanding tradeoff between spatial resolution
    and light yield in X-ray imaging. By engineering supercollimation, which is light
    propagation without angular spreading, within the emission spectrum, we strongly
    shape the angular emission profile of the scintillator, dramatically reducing
    blurring at large thicknesses. Our theoretical and numerical results, using realistic
    scintillator and photonic crystal parameters, show that this improves the Detector
    Quantum Efficiency (DQE) by up to several orders of magnitude at high spatial
    frequencies, enabling sharper images and reduced X-ray dosages. This approach
    offers a new path toward high-resolution, low-dose X-ray imaging systems.@eng
