Outline of Final Research Achievements

In this study, we have developed the LiF single crystal neutron scintillator. Although LiF was an ideal compound in terms of gamma ray sensitivity and 6Li density, there have been no reports on succeeding in developing the LiF single crystal that can be used as a scintillator. As a result of intensive research, we have succeeded in developing a novel LiF scintillator which can obtain a detection peak beyond the noise level of a general photomultiplier through the evaluation with the pulse height spectra.
