【Abstract】 Inorganic scintillators as ideal candidates for detection of X-ray, γ-ray, neutron and high energy particles have been widely applied in molecular medical imaging, high energy physics, nuclear physics, security inspection, non-destructive materials flaw detection and geological survey. With the development of crystal growth techniques and the deeper understanding of the scintillation materials, many known scintillators have been optimized with respect to their properties and the application were greatly broaden. New and sophisticated applications have higher demands for scintillation properties of the crystals. Design, discover, develop and produce scintillation materials with better properties such as high density with high stopping powder of energetic particles, good optical homogeneity, high light yield, fast decay, high stability and low cost are still the main tasks. This micro-review introduced the recent research development of inorganic scintillation crystals in the halide, tungstate, germinate, silicate, aluminate, borate, phosphate systems.更多还原
