X-Ray Scintillators

Gadolinium oxysulfide (Gd2O2S), also referred to as Gadox, GOS or P43, is the most widely used phosphor in X-Ray applications, on account of its comparatively high luminescent efficiency, it�s well understood material characteristics and the fact that the photons emitted are comparable to the wavelengths detected by silicon light detection devices, including charge-coupled detector (CCD) and complementary metal oxide semiconductor (CMOS) sensors.
