Improvement of Structure and Properties of Scintillation Composites by Centrifugation

  • Published:
Inorganic Materials: Applied Research Aims and scope

Abstract

Centrifugation of liquid composites from a solution of activated polystyrene and cesium sulfate nanoparticles makes it possible to obtain a uniform composite film, avoiding nanoparticle agglomeration, as well as form scintillation microfibers with a modulated structure that ensures distributed feedback, amplification, and directivity of radiation.
