The synthesis of lanthanide-activated phosphors is pertinent to many emerging applications,
ranging from high-resolution luminescence imaging to next-generation volumetric full-color …

In this review, the major achievements and research and development (R&D) trends from
the last decade in the field of single crystal scintillator materials are described. Two material …

The imaging performance of clinical positron emission tomography (PET) systems has
evolved impressively during the last∼ 15 years. A main driver of these improvements has …

For a long time the discovery of new scintillators has been more serendipitous than driven
by a deep understanding of the mechanisms at the origin of the scintillation process. This …

Instrumentation for positron emission tomography (PET) imaging has experienced
tremendous improvements in performance over the past 60 years since it was first conceived …

This biennial Review summarizes much of particle physics. Using data from previous
editions, plus 2158 new measurements from 551 papers, we list, evaluate, and average …

The scintillation properties of LaBr 3 doped with 0.5% Ce 3+ are presented. Under optical
and gamma ray excitation, Ce 3+ emission is observed to peak at 356 and 387 nm. The …

During the last ten to fifteen years, researchers have made considerable progress in the
study of inorganic scintillators. New scintillation materials have been investigated, novel …

Scintillators are materials which can detect highly ionizing radiation, because they efficiently
convert the energy of this radiation into light. After defining this field of materials, the physical …
