Influence of depth of interaction upon the performance of scintillator detectors.

PLoS ONE, 2014
The uncertainty in time of particle detection within a scintillator detector, characterised by the coincidence time resolution (CTR), is explored with respect to the interaction position within the scintillator crystal itself.

Fabrication and Characterization of K₂CeCl₅/⁶LiCl and CeCl₃/SrCl₂/⁶LiCl Eutectics for Thermal Neutron Detection

Crystals, 2022
In recent years, thermal neutron detection using scintillators has been used in a wide range of fields. Thus, the development of scintillators with a higher light yield, faster decay, and higher sensitivity for thermal neutrons is required. In this study,
