Abstract

A novel glass-ceramic scintillation screen based on an antimony(III) halide ((DCI)3SbCl6·CH3CN, DCI = 1,3-dicyclohexyl imidazolium) has been fabricated via in-situ recrystallization. It exhibits a high light yield of 16,159 photons MeV-1 and maintains an excellent spatial resolution of 18 lp mm-1, demonstrating great potential for X-ray imaging.
