Growth and characterization of organic scintillation single crystal 1,1,4,4-Tetraphenyl-1,3-Butadiene (TPB) using vertical Bridgman technique

Instruments and methods for coating of wavelength-shifting materials used for noble liquid technology

“…Several R&D campaigns were performed by different groups to study and characterize one or more properties of the coated materials to validate or improve the features of the used methods with the aim to find the most appropriate technique able to guarantee stability and robustness of the coatings. Different systems and set-ups were built and operated to these proper tasks and analyses were carried out to extrapolate results on the features of the coated materials7 [7,19,23,28,33,[36][37][38][39][40][41][42][43][44].…”

Synthesis, crystal growth, structural and physicochemical properties of an organic single crystal (C11H16N2O4) for fast scintillation and NLO applications

“…5 Organic crystal scintillators have potential applications in many fields due to their molecular properties of luminescence and radiation detection. 6 These organic scintillator crystals are used mainly in the direct detection of fast neutrons via proton recoil followed by the elastic scattering of fast neutrons. 7 In recent times, a lot of interest has been shown in designing supramolecular structures assembled through several weak non-covalent, electrostatic and van der Waals interactions.…”
