Composite scintillator consists of optical transparent media with dispersed granules of scintillator. Composite scintillators possess kinetic and luminescent properties of single crystals. The scintillators effectively detect gamma, beta and X-ray radiation, neutron. Composite scintillators allow manufacturing of large area detectors. This scintillator has high positional sensitivity. Composite scintillators can be used for neutron detection, in the X-ray imaging and high energy physics.
All materials are commercially available (halide crystals, oxide crystals, AIIBVI):
• scintillation crystal granules
• scintillation ceramic (raw materials obtained by chemical synthesis, without crystal growth stage)
