Lithium-doped two-dimensional perovskite scintillator for wide-range radiation detection by Xie, Aozhen, Hettiarachchi, Chathuranga, Maddalena, Francesco, Witkowski, Marcin E., Makowski, Michal, Drozdowski, Winicjusz, Arramel, Arramel, Wee, Andrew T. S., Springham, Stuart Victor, Vuong, Phan Quoc, Kim, Hong Joo, Dujardin, Christophe, Coquet, Philippe, Birowosuto, Muhammad Danang, Dang, Cuong

“…Our 1:1 Li-doped (PEA)2PbBr4 demonstrates a fast decay time of 11 ns (80%), a clear photopeak with an energy resolution of 12.4%, and a scintillation yield of 11,000 photons per MeV under 662 keV gamma-ray radiation. Additionally, our Li-doped crystal shows a clear alpha particle/gamma-ray discrimination and promising thermal neutron detection through 6Li enrichment. …”

A review of organic phase change materials and their adaptation for thermal energy storage by Yadav, Aman, Pandey, A. K., Mahendran, Samykano, Kalidasan, B., Said, Zafar

“…However, low thermal conductivity and leakage problems during the phase transition of O-PCMs are of great concern. To overcome the long-standing drawbacks of O-PCMs, we critically discussed the preparation techniques of macro encapsulation phase change (MaPCM), microencapsulation phase change materials (MPCM), shape stabilized phase change materials (SSPCM), eutectic phase change materials (EPCM), nano-enhanced phase changematerials (NePCM) along with themorphological insights, thermal propertyenhancements & molecular dynamics (MD) simulation of the prepared composite PCMs. …”
