cintilador
English term
scintillator
Gadolinium silicate doped with cerium is a "fast" crystal and can be used as a protection scintillator. Its possible applications include computer tomography, spatial resolution of less than 1 mm. (Marketech International )
YAG (Yttrium Aluminum Garnet) single crystal scintillators are chosen by many scanning electron microscopists because they have a very fast response time of 50 - 60ns and (unlike plastic or most phosphor scintillators) they do not degrade when bombarded by electrons or ions. (Canemco & Marivac)
Plastic scintillators are prepared by bulk polymerization in aluminium (size up to 3.5 m) or glass cast and by pressure molding technique. (Amcrys-H)

cintilador
O detector é composto por duas partes: uma matriz de cintiladores embebidos em paredes fabricadas a partir de um material reflector, e uma matriz de elementos de imagem (pixels) construído em tecnologia CMOS. As paredes fabricadas a partir dum material reflector formam guias de luz que evitam a dispersão da luz visível produzida pelos cintiladores e a consequente interferência entre cada pixel e os seus vizinhos.
