<sup>6</sup>LiF Converters for Neutron Detection: Production Procedures and Detector Tests

Several methods to detect thermal neutrons make use of the naturally occurring <sup>6</sup>Li isotope, as it has a rather high cross-section for neutron capture followed by a decay into an alpha particle and a triton. Due to the high chemical reactivity of lithium, the use of the stable...
