Labr3(ce) vs Srl2(EU) vs NaI for Xrays and very low gamma

Post by Marco75 » 24 Dec 2023, 02:01

Goog morning Forum,
I am thinking to buy a new scintillation probe for x-rays and low gamma , let's say less than 50-100 KeV
I am considering LaBr3(CE), Srl2(EU) and NaI(Ti) all with beryllium window and small depth (like 25 x 10 mm or less)

I am able to find clear comparisons at normal or middle energies but I have found nothing that shows the energy resolution for these three crystals in the region of 60kev and below

Anywone has diagrams or numbers to share?

Happy Christmas

Marco/Italy
Ciao

On the Maximus Energy web blog one of his early articles was with a 2 mm thick SrI2(Eu) detector. Several spectra are shown with lower energy (e.g. Am241) peaks.
