The urgency for affordable and reliable detectors for ionizing radiation in medical diagnostics, nuclear control and particle physics is generating growing demand for innovative scintillator devices combining efficient scintillation, fast emission lifetime, high interaction probability with ionizing radiation, as well as mitigated reabsorption to suppress losses in large volume/high-density...
Lead halide perovskites (LHP) are rapidly emerging as efficient, low-cost, solution-processable scintillators for radiation detection. Most importantly, LHP can be embedded in suitable polymeric hosts to create composite materials and produce fast, efficient, and more sensitive detectors in a cost-effective way, to meet the specific demands of all up-to-date technological and medical...
Lead halide perovskite (LHP) nanocrystals show promise as scintillators due to their high atomic number, bright luminescence and tunable emission wavelength. Here, we present nanocomposite scintillators which consist of formamidinium lead halide perovskite nanocrystals in a polymer matrix. Mixed-halide FAPbBr$_{3x}$Cl$_{3(1-x)}$ nanocrystals were synthesised by a room-temperature...
