| CRYTUR introduces new fast and heavy scintillator |
| Crytur introduces new scintillating single-crystal LuAG:Pr. It combines a high-density matrix of LuAG and Pr3+ ion which is a fast and efficient luminescence center. LuAG:Pr has higher light output compared to BGO. It has comparable absorption as BGO. The decay time is 20ns. Hence, it can be used for high-count rate spectroscopic measurements of high-energy gamma rays. |
| Yb:YAG |
| Yb:YAG is well suited for high power laser applications. |
| CRY18 - The new scintillation material |
| CRY18 is a new mixed rare-earth silicate single crystal of medium density featuring high light yield and short decay time. |
| CRY19 - The new scintillation material |
| CRY19 is a new mixed rare-earth silicate single crystal of high density featuring high light yield and short decay time. |
| LuAG:Ce - The new scintillation material |
| LuAG:Ce, Lutetium Aluminum Garnet activated by cerium (chemical formula Lu3Al5O12), is a relatively dense and fast scintillation material. |
| Very thin Imaging Screens |
| Crytur has developed very thin YAG:Ce and LuAG:Ce screens. |
Yttrium aluminum garnet activated by cerium is a fast scintillator with excellent mechanical and chemical resistance. YAG:Ce scintillation detectors are preferred for electron microscopy, beta and X-ray counting, as well as for electron and X-ray imaging screens. The material's mechanical properties enable production of thin screens down to 0.005 mm thick.
