OSTI ID:1311822

Payne, Stephen A.; Stoeffl, Wolfgang; Zaitseva, Natalia P.; Cherepy, Nerine J.; Carman, Leslie M.

A composition of matter includes an organic molecule having a composition different than stilbene. The organic molecule is embodied as a crystal, and exhibits: an optical response signature for neutrons; an optical response signature for gamma rays, and performance comparable to or superior to stilbene in terms of distinguishing neutrons from gamma rays. The optical response signature for neutrons is different than the optical response signature for gamma rays.
