CsI (Tl) SCINTILLATORS FOR RECORDING $alpha$ PARTICLES

Journal Article · · Soviet Phys.-Cryst.
OSTI ID:4843573
The preparation, performance, and properties of thalliumactivated cesium iodide crystals for recording alpha particles are given. The CsI(Tl) crystals are of large diameter (from 30 to 55 mm) and have gocd resolving power for the detection, spectrometric measurement, and other work with alpha radiation. For clarification of the performance of the crystals, the spectral resolution of the alpha line of americium-241 is given. The effects of crystal thickness and diameter on luminescence yield are shown. (N.W.R.)
