Safer scintillator Researchers at King's College London are developing a water-based scintillator made from quantum dots for neutrino detection. The experimental setup shows a sample of quantum dots ...
To test their inorganic scintillator detector (ISD), the researchers used it to measure the dose inside a water phantom, which they exposed to X-ray fields as small as 0.25 cm 2. They compared the ISD ...
More interestingly, the hybrid scintillator has a faster scintillation decay process over the conventional scintillators, which is beneficial for digital motion X-ray.
Using 4 million year old radioactive sharks' teeth, a sodium iodine scintillator and a gamma ray spectrometer, a group of Lamar University scientists believe they are on track to developing a new ...
Eu:SrI2 Scintillator Crystal —A scintillation with highlight output and excellent energy resolution Efficient radiation detectors must be able to distinguish between different radioactive sources and ...
As the primary scintillator tends to radiate in the deep UV part of the EM spectrum, a wavelength shifter (i.e. secondary scintillator) which ‘shifts’ the emitted UV radiation into the visible ...
Here's an interesting little project that anybody with some foil, gaffing tape, and a scintillator can do. It'll let you see for yourself the natural radiation associated with elements like 40K ...
Making nanoscale patterns in 'scintillator' materials that convert X-rays into light could allow a tenfold signal enhancement for medical or industrial imaging, researchers report. This method ...
Product Announcement Ce LuAG Scintillator Crystal 13 Aug 2019 Description Ce:LuAG Scintillator Crystal —A scintillation material suitable for high-power laser lighting Cerium-activated LuAG was ...
They exposed scintillator crystals—a material that emits light when it absorbs radiation—to gamma radiation, which is produced by nuclear waste. The crystals’ light then powered a solar battery.
