Scintillating Crystals are used to detect the energy and intensity level
of γ ray. The crystals are used as a key functional material in
modern science and technology. Its application can be found in various
occasions such as airport, railway station, customs, port as well as oil
field and geographic exploration where detection is required. The products
we produced such as CsI:Tl(Cesium Iodide), NaI:Tl(Sodium
Iodide) and BaF2(Barium Fluoride)
have received high recognition from users in U.S. and Japan.
NaI:TI Crystal and NaI Detector
NaI is a kind of scintillation crystal with good properties. It
has a very high luminescence efficiency and is available in single
crystals or polycrystalline forms in a wide variety of sizes and
ge0metries. The material exhibits no significant self absorption of the
scintillation light and has good resolution ability to X-ray and γ-ray.
Of all available scintillators, NaI is the most extensively used material.
It is widely used in nuclear medicine, well logging, environmental
monitoring, high energy physics and in many other applications.
Red Optronics supply both NaI crystals and NaI detectors(150°C and 175°C
). We offer NaI detectors with the
