The following report summarizes my overall research and experience in the Department of Homeland Security HS-STEM Summer Internship Program at the Idaho National Laboratory. First, I give an introduction to scintillators principles. This includes the basic physics and methodology for radiation detection. Secondly, an introduction to my work is presented which includes the problem and approach. Next, I summarize the skills I learned in the internship as well as interesting knowledge that I was exposed to. I finish with my future career plans as well as acknowledgements.
