Scintillating compositions for detecting neutrons and methods of making the same
Solid-state scintillating compositions for detecting neutrons comprise a Li4Zn(PO4)2 host lattice. Methods of making scintillating compositions comprise: dissolving a lithium-6 precursor and a zinc precursor in a solvent to form a solution; combining phosphoric acid with the solution; combining a base with the solution to form a precipitate; and heating the precipitate to form a Li4Zn(PO4)2 host lattice.
