Provides an up-to-date summary of new scintillating materials for ionization radiation detectors and recent progress in growth methods for single crystals Scintillators, a type of material that can emit light after absorbing high-energy particles or rays, play a central role in the field of radiation detection. Scintillators are the core components of nuclear medicine imaging equipment, baggage and container security inspection, non-destructive testing of large industrial equipment, environmental monitoring, and many other applications. Inorganic Scintillator and Crystal Growth Methods updates readers with the latest developments in the rapidly-advancing area. Opening with a brief introduction, the book covers a range of novel scintillator single crystals; gamma-ray scintillators with garnet-type oxide crystals, pyrochlore-type oxide crystals, halide crystals, neutron scintillators with fluoride crystals, halide crystals, vacuum ultraviolet (VUV) scintillators, and fluoride scintillators. Concise chapters also address self-organized scintillators with eutectic morphology and nanoparticle scintillator crystals. Provides a timely and reliable overview of the achievements, trends, and advances in the field Highlights new work on single crystals of piezoelectric and scintillator materials, as well as various growth methods of different functional single crystals Presented in a succinct format that allows readers to quickly ingest key information Includes real-world perspectives on a variety of industrial applications Written by an international team of experts in non-organic material science Inorganic Scintillator and Crystal Growth Methods is a valuable resource for both academics and industry professionals, especially materials scientists, inorganic chemists, and radiation physicists.
