“…To date, only a few compounds have been commercially used for ionizing radiation detection. For instance, high-purity germanium (HPGe), , Si, , a -Se, − cadmium telluride (CdTe, CT), zinc-alloyed CdTe (Cd (1‑ x ) Zn x Te, 0 < x < 0.2, CZT), − lead iodide (PbI 2 ), − and mercury iodide (HgI 2 ) − are widely used for direct detectors; bismuth germanium oxide (Bi 4 Ge 3 O 12 ) (BGO), thallium-activated cesium iodide (CsI:Tl), − and terbium-doped gadolinium oxysulfide (GOS:Tb) are dominantly used as scintillators for indirect detectors. However, these compounds suffer from a variety of issues, such as large leakage currents, , high manufacturing cost, ,− poor mechanical properties, , relative compound toxicity, and progressive degradation over time due to the polarization phenomenon. , In a nutshell, despite enormous efforts, developing new materials with high performance, low manufacturing cost, and room-temperature operation ability for radiation detection has remained a challenge over the past decades.…”

Ionizing radiation such as X-rays and γ-rays has been extensively studied and used in various fields such as medical imaging, radiographic nondestructive testing, nuclear defense, homeland security, and scientific research. Therefore, the detection of such highenergy radiation with high-sensitivity and low-cost-based materials and devices is highly important and desirable. Halide perovskites have emerged as promising candidates for radiation detection due to the large light absorption coefficient, large resistivity, low leakage current, high mobility, and simplicity in synthesis and processing as compared with commercial silicon (Si) and amorphous selenium (a-Se). In this review, we provide an extensive overview of current progress in terms of materials development and corresponding device architectures for radiation detection. We discuss the properties of a plethora of reported compounds involving organic−inorganic hybrid, all-inorganic, all-organic perovskite and antiperovskite structures, as well as the continuous breakthroughs in device architectures, performance, and environmental stability. We focus on the critical advancements of the field in the past few years and we provide valuable insight for the development of next-generation materials and devices for radiation detection and imaging applications.

“…Yucel et al used a semiempirical formula to calculate the true CS corrections based on the total e ciency calculation and this method can be applied without any di culty to Ge detectors for coincident nuclide [12]. Taibi et al used the MCNP5 code Monto Carlo simulation to evaluate the true CS corrections for volumetric Eu-152 sources in gamma-ray spectroscopy, the results were confirmed with the TrueCoinc software, and a good agreement was obtained [13]. e problem of true CS correction for each of the point and volumetric sources was investigated through many previous works especially with the use of environmental sources or samples with low activity [14][15][16][17][18][19][20][21][22][23][24][25].…”

Geant4 simulation was applied to correct the coincidence summing (CS) effect in detecting a volumetric γ-ray sources, and this technique was applied to a152Eu standard sources. The radioactive sources were a liquid cylindrical, rectangular, and Marinelli beaker shapes of different volume for each one. Radionuclide track (RT) including coincidence summing and monoenergetic track without coincidence summing. The results obtained from two approaches compared with the experimental data and the modified KORSUM code for cylindrical γ-ray source. The comparison showed that the adopted method in this investigation is useful for coincidence summing corrections for a voluminous γ-ray sources.Moreover, this technique requires far less computation time than the techniques that depend on the calculation of total efficiency.
