SG101 is a kind of Lithiium-6 doped glass (Li-6 glass) scintillators used in thermal neutron detection, it has a high efficiency for thermal neutron detection, with short decay time, excellent n-γ ray discrimination and good thermal properties. Li-6 glass is often made into cylindrical or rectangular shape in applications.
Lithium-6 glass scintillators are widely used in the nuclear power plant, nuclear waste treatment facilities, environmental radiation monitoring system ect., which would monitor the environmental neutron radiation accurately. Li-6 glass scintlaltors are also used in neutron flight time experiment, well-logging, non destructive test and neutron photography applications.
