  • Apparatus, system, and method for radiation hardened plastic and flexible elastomer scintillator
    Patent number: 11307314
    Abstract: A scintillating material that is a radiation hardened plastic and flexible elastomer is disclosed. The material is useful in a wide range of high energy particle environments and can be used to create detectors. Such detectors can be used in physics experiments or in medical treatment or imaging. The scintillator can be radiation hardened so as to allow for an extended lifetime over other materials.
    Type: Grant
    Filed: December 20, 2016
    Date of Patent: April 19, 2022
    Assignee: University of Iowa Research Foundation
    Inventors: Ugur Akgun, Yasar Onel
