BGO
Introduction:
BGO is a kind of inorganic oxide crystals, it is colorless and transparent, when a certain energy electronic gamma rays or heavy charged particles get into the BGO, it can emitgreen fluorescence,
the wavelength can reach higher to 480nm. BGO as a good scintillation material with its high stopping power, high scintillation efficiency, good energy resolution and non-hygroscopic, and it has
been found a wide range of applications.
Key Features: Applications:
High density and atomic number Nuclear Medical imaging(PET)
