GPS
- Single Crystal (Scintillator)
- GPS is a material currently under development that features higher fluorescence output and energy resolution compared to NaI. It is stable without hygroscopic deliquescence and is considered to have the best characteristics among oxide scintillators.
It is expected to be adopted in applications such as underground exploration and space-related uses in the future.
Features
- Excellent high-temperature characteristics (usable up to ~300°C)
- Higher fluorescence output and superior energy resolution compared to NaI
- Contains no self-radioactive elements, resulting in no background noise
- Stable with no hygroscopic deliquescence
