Scintillators are a class of materials that convert high-energy radiation into visible or ultraviolet light, with wide applications in fields such as high-energy physics and medical imaging.

(Nanowerk News) Scientists discovered a self-healing cycle for defects in ceramics predicted by advanced atomic-level simulations. Irradiation creates defects and causes the ordered atomic structure ...
