Development of an advanced X-ray detector for inspecting inner microscopic structural details in industrial applications

Comprehensive Test Method for Optical Performance of X-Ray Scintillation Crystals

“…Scintillators are widely used as radiation to light convertrs in radiation detectors of a large variety of X-ray imaging applications, such as X-ray digital radiography and X-ray computed tomography [1]. Most radiation detectors consist of a scintillator layer coupled to an optical detector [2]. Halide scintillators have been extensively studied in recent years due to their very good scintillation properties, and this has resulted in the development of a variety of halide scintillators [3][4][5][6][7][8], such as NaI, CsI, Bgo, PbWO 4 , BaF 2 , Gd 2 O 2 S, YAP:Ce, GSO:Ce, LSO:Ce and etc..…”
