Inrad Optics grows and fabricates stilbene, an organic scintillator used for radiation detection. We offer stilbene as a standalone crystal or integrated with a photodetector. Crystal sizes range from 5mm cubes to 100mm cylinders. The primary advantages of stilbene are its high sensitivity to neutrons and excellent discrimination between neutrons and gamma-ray radiation.
Additionally, stilbene is a solid-state, non-hazardous material. Stilbene has proven performance advantages over liquid and plastic scintillators and we consistently find crystalline stilbene offers significantly better pulse shape discrimination, along with lower energy thresholds, higher gamma rejection, and higher neutron efficiency.
