Synergistic Compatibilization of CsPbBr3 Perovskites and HfO2 Nanocrystals for Hybrid Sensitized Nanoscintillators

Advanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.
Lead halide perovskite nanocrystals are promising scintillators but suffer from reabsorption losses and limited compatibility with high‐Z additives. Hybridization of CsPbBr3 nanocrystals with PbBr2‐passivated HfO2 nanoparticle sensitizers, achieved during or after synthesis, produces stable composites with maintained optical quality, improved ...

Novel epoxy-bPBD-BisMSB composite plastic scintillator for alpha, beta and gamma radiation detection

Scientific Reports
A composite plastic scintillator is prepared by uniform dispersion of organic fluorophores 2-(4-Biphenylyl)-5-(4-tert-butylphenyl)-1,3,4-oxadiazole (b-PBD) and 1,4-bis(2-methylstyryl) benzene (Bis-MSB) in epoxy resin followed by curing at room ...

Wetting Interactions Between Porous Carbon Hosts and Liquid Sodium‐Potassium Alloys Toward Their Use in Negative Electrodes of Alkali‐Metal Batteries

Advanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.
Porous carbon host materials are investigated for their possible usage in liquid alkali‐metal negative electrodes. X‐ray computed tomography reveals pore‐filling behavior under various conditions: non‐wetting, forced wetting, and spontaneous wetting. The applicability of porous carbon in electrochemical cells is demonstrated at high areal capacities ...

Time-resolved fast-neutron imaging with a pulse-counting image intensifier [PDF]

, 2006
A new imaging method that combines high-efficiency fast-neutron detection with sub-ns time resolution is presented. This is achieved by exploiting the high neutron detection efficiency of a thick scintillator and the fast timing capability and ...

Micro and Nanostructural Diversity of Lizard Osteoderm Capping Tissue in Relation to Mechanical Performance

Advanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.
This study shows that lizard osteoderm capping tissue is a hyper‐mineralized hydroxyapatite layer consistently covering the superficial osteoderm surface in those species studied here, yet it varies greatly in morphology, nanostructure, and mechanical performance across species.

New perspectives for neutron imaging through advanced event-mode data acquisition

Scientific Reports, 2021
Imaging using scintillators is a widespread and cost-effective approach in radiography. While different types of scintillator and sensor configurations exist, it can be stated that the detection efficiency and resolution of a scintillator-based system ...
