PEROVSKITE SCINTILLATOR LAYERS AND COMPONENTS FOR VARIOUS X-RAY APPLICATIONS

SKU0056
DESCRIPTION

Scintillators are chemical substances — phosphors — that can emit visible light when exposed to ionizing radiation. This radiation can include α, β, γ rays, electrons, nuclear fragments, X-rays, and more. Perovskites are a class of materials with highly advanced optical properties. Due to their composition, which includes heavy elements, they can effectively absorb X-rays and have the potential to become the foundation for a new generation of detectors. The use of this new material eliminates the need for constant trade-offs between brightness, resolution, speed, range, size, and cost.

ADVANTAGES OF THE DEVELOPMENT

  • High sensitivity
  • Fast operation
  • Simple and cost-effective manufacturing
  • Flexibility: perovskites enable the creation of flexible and non-brittle detectors
  • Tunability: perovskites are a broad class of compounds, allowing parameter optimization over a wide range, while maintaining a unified production and processing methodology
