Recent development of organic scintillators is reviewed from the viewpoint of materials
science. Design and crystal growth of organic crystalline scintillators, use of novel solvents …

Scintillators are materials that are able to emit photons when impinged with ionizing
radiations. This family of materials is covered by both organic and inorganic structures, with …

Plastic scintillators have been investigated for γ-ray detection with the promise of fast
response, ease of scale up, and mechanical toughness. However, their low light yield has …

This chapter describes the basic electronic processes responsible for scintillation in organic
scintillators. It also describes the electronic states in organic molecules in a different manner …

The research team has developed new plastic scintillators in the form of microspheres,
called PSm, by combining styrene, 9-vinylcarbazole (VK), and 4-vinylbenzyl chloride (VBC) …

Cross-linked polyvinyltoluene (PVT) based plastic scintillators loaded with dyes exhibiting
thermally activated delayed fluorescence (TADF) and various amounts of (caproate) di …

Carbazole crystals were grown using self-seeding vertical Bridgman technique, and the
scintillation properties for neutron detection were investigated. Results of powder X-ray …

Two novel tetrafluorobenzocarbazole and containing the amino branch introduced at the
end of the molecule are synthesized by a simple method. The tetrafluorobenzocarbazole as …

An improved procedure is described for the synthesis of poly (2-naphthyl methacrylate) from
methacryloyl chloride and 2-naphthol without isolation and purification of the corresponding …

Pulse shape discrimination (PSD) is an important method that can efficiently identify and
separate neutron and gamma radiation signals. PSD is currently achieved in plastic …
