CeF3
Introduction:
Cerium fluoride (CeF3) is a newly discovered inorganic scintillation crystal, it has advantages of high density and short decay time, high counting rate, high radiation hardness, high time resolution,
since it was proposed as possible scintillator used for calorimeter of L3P, much work has been made on this material.
