Preparation and characterization of thermal neutron sensitive lithium doped polystyrene plastic scintillators by ZHANG Kaihui, LI Xiang, DENG Mingxue, SHI Yun, ZHOU Qi, WANG Ke, CHEN Junfeng

“…However, as the LiME content increases, both the fluorescence intensity and light output of the scintillator gradually decrease. This trend is presumed to be associated with fluorescence quenching effects induced by the doping process.ConclusionsLarge, transparent plastic scintillators doped with up to 12 wt% LiME (equivalent to 0.9 wt% Li) can be successfully synthesized using a thermal polymerization method. …”
