Abstract
Spectroscopic detection of gamma photons has widespread applications for radiation research, threat detection and medical diagnosis. We report the development of nanocomposite scintillators dissolved in liquid solutions or cured to solid monoliths for gamma photoelectric generation. High-Z nanoparticles are employed to enhance the gamma cross-section, and conjugated organic luminescent compounds are investigated to boost the light yield. Factors affecting the synthesis, optical transparency, light yield and radiation hardness will be discussed.
