Fabrication of an alpha particle counter: spin coated films of synthesized nanocrystalline cadmium tungstate powder

Background: CdWO4 is a scintillator with some unique properties. For example, high density, thermal and chemical stability and so on. Different applications of this scintillator such as X-ray scintillator has been investigated thoroughly so far. However, there is limited number of studies reporting the characteristics of CdWO4 as an alpha counter. Materials and Methods: The CdWO4 powder was syn...
