Abstract :
The luminescence property of Ce-doped oxide glass having B and Li with large absorption coefficient for neutron was investigated by optical transmittance, alpha particle, and neutron irradiation. The light output of the B2O3–Li2O:CeO2 glass system increased with the increase in B2O3 and CeO2. It was observed that the decay time which showed composition dependence varied in the range 30–45 ns. Although the light output by neutron irradiation is 9.2% of Li-glass, low density and high neutron absorption with short decay time make this new boron-based glass scintillator useful for neutron detection.
