Linear Arrays, which are made from single row of pixels, or slabs of scintillation crystals, are to be optically reflective and isolating. Their assemblies are typically coupled with pixellated photodiodes & Silicone photomultipliers and used quite often in security type applications, such as baggage scanners, cargo inspection, and other non-destructive testing. When used in a nuclear medical application, crystals such as LYSO are used in Bone Mineral Densitometry or Positron Emission Tomography(PET) machines.

Linear Arrays, which are made from single row of pixels, or slabs of scintillation crystals, are to be optically reflective and isolating. Their assemblies are typically coupled with pixellated photodiodes & Silicone photomultipliers and used quite often in security type applications, such as baggage scanners, cargo inspection, and other non-destructive testing. When used in a nuclear medical application, crystals such as LYSO are used in Bone Mineral Densitometry or Positron Emission Tomography(PET) machines.
The scintillation crystals that can be produced into linear arrays include most commonly used CsI(Tl), CdWO4, GOS, LYSO(Ce), GAGG(Ce) and BGO, we could also produce linear arrays from other scintillation materials like YSO(Ce), YAG(Ce), YAP(Ce) and Plastic Scintillator etc. We offer a variety of design options in terms of pixel size, pixel pitch, the number of pixels, pixel separator materials and crystal surface finishes, in order to optimize array performance during actual application. Our manufacturing process ensures the arrays with high light output, high sensitivity, high resolution as well as excellent pixel-to-pixel, batch-to-batch uniformity with minimal crosstalk.
