ABSTRACT:
A scintillator composition is described. The scintillator composition includes a lutetium phosphate matrix, a cerium activator ion for the matrix material, a praseodymium activator ion, and any reaction products thereof. Radiation detectors that use scintillators for detecting high-energy radiation are also described. Related methods for detecting high-energy radiation are also included.
