Transparent Solid-State Lithiated Neutron Scintillators Based on Self-Assembly of Polystyrene-block-poly(ethylene oxide) Copolymer Architectures

A new transparent neutron‐scintillating material has been developed based on polystyrene‐block‐poly(ethylene oxide). The unique self‐assembly structure of the block copolymer makes it possible to dope hydrophilic Li+ in the ethylene‐oxide domain and hydrophobic organic fluors in the styrene domain (...

Zusammenfassung:A new transparent neutron‐scintillating material has been developed based on polystyrene‐block‐poly(ethylene oxide). The unique self‐assembly structure of the block copolymer makes it possible to dope hydrophilic Li+ in the ethylene‐oxide domain and hydrophobic organic fluors in the styrene domain (see Figure).
