Fabrication of CeCl<sub>3</sub>/LiCl/CaCl<sub>2</sub> Ternary Eutectic Scintillator for Thermal Neutron Detection

Fabrication of CeCl<sub>3</sub>/LiCl/CaCl<sub>2</sub> Ternary Eutectic Scintillator for Thermal Neutron Detection

To date, <sup>3</sup>He gas has been commonly used to detect thermal neutrons because of their high chemical stability and low sensitivity to γ-rays, owing to their low density and large neutron capture cross-section. However, the depletion of <sup>3</sup>He gas prompts the d...
