Problems solved by technology

But LaBr 3 :Ce material exists 138 La radioactive background affects its performance when identifying weak radiation sources, while SrI 2 : Eu material has a strong self-absorption effect, and the scintillation performance will be significantly reduced when the crystal size is large
In addition, similar to NaI:Tl, these two materials have strong deliquescence and are very unstable in the atmospheric environment, which greatly increases the preparation cost and application difficulty.
[0005] The above-mentioned scintillation materials all have the widespread disadvantage of deliquescence in the air, which is a widespread halide scintillator. Due to this shortcoming, halide scintillator crystals often need to be tightly packaged before they can be used, which has great impact on material storage and The cost of the application has a large impact
At present, the non-(or weak) deliquescent halide scintillators that are widely used are mainly thallium-doped cesium iodide (CsI:Tl + ), this material has a high light output comparable to NaI:Tl and is cheap, but its long afterglow limits its application in high-resolution imaging
CsI: Tl crystal also has the problem of luminous non-uniformity, which is due to the fact that Tl + Due to the segregation of the ions, there is a non-uniform distribution in the whole crystal, which leads to the non-uniform scintillation performance of the crystal.
This shortcoming is common to all doped luminescent scintillation crystals, which will inevitably reduce the final energy resolution of the material
