Patent ·
OSTI ID:5670917

This patent describes a solid state radioluminescent composition for light source comprises an optically clear polymer organic matrix containing tritiated organic materials and dyes capable of red shifting primary scintillation emissions from the polymer matrix. The triated organic materials are made by reducing, with tritium, an unsaturated organic compound that prior to reduction contains olefinic or alkynylic bonds.
