(INVITED) Ultraviolet cross-luminescence in ternary chlorides of alkali and alkaline-earth metals

Optical Materials: X, 2021
After the discovery of a cross-luminescence (CL) in BaF2 in 1982, a large number of CL scintillators were investigated. However, no CL scintillator superior to BaF2 has been discovered, and the research of CL scintillators has subsided.

Radiopurity of $ZnWO_4$ Crystal Scintillators [PDF]

, 2010
Recently $ZnWO_4$ was proposed as perspective material for low-counting experiments to search for rare processes. Such experiments demand high radiopurity of $ZnWO_4$ crystal scintillators. With this aim radioactive contamination of large volume (0.1-0.7
