Abstract:
Newly developed copper-iodide cluster microcubes offer a solution to the issues commonly faced by powder scintillation screens. These problems include inadequate scintillation performance and significant light scattering, resulting in poor image quality. With the advent of monodisperse copper-iodide cluster microparticle scintillators, efficient and long-term stable scintillation is achieved, while ensuring biocompatibility. Moreover, they enable high-resolution static and dynamic X-ray imaging, providing high image quality.
