Pure CsI Scintillators
Pure cesium iodide (pure CsI) is a fast-response inorganic scintillation crystal with two main emission bands: a fast component peaking at 315 nm in the near-ultraviolet region and a secondary emission at 460 nm. It features an extremely short scintillation decay time of ~16 ns, much faster than most doped CsI variants, plus strong radiation resistance and a high density of 4.51 g/cm³.

Pure CsI Scintillator (Pure CsI Scintillation Crystal)
Pure cesium iodide (pure CsI) is a fast-response inorganic scintillation crystal with two main emission bands: a fast component peaking at 315 nm in the near-ultraviolet region and a secondary emission at 460 nm. It features an extremely short scintillation decay time of ~16 ns, much faster than most doped CsI variants, plus strong radiation resistance and a high density of 4.51 g/cm³. These properties make it ideal for fast timing applications such as electromagnetic calorimeters in high-energy physics experiments.
OST Photonics specializes in supplying customized pure CsI crystals for research institutes and university laboratories, supporting tailored specifications to meet the unique requirements of academic and scientific research projects.
