This book introduces the physics and chemistry of plastic
scintillators (fluorescent polymers) that are able to emit light
when exposed to ionizing radiation, discussing their chemical
modification in the early 1950s and 1960s, as well as the renewed
upsurge in interest in the 21st century. The book presents
contributions from various researchers on broad aspects of plastic
scintillators, from physics, chemistry, materials science and
applications, covering topics such as the chemical nature of the
polymer and/or the fluorophores, modification of the photophysical
properties (decay time, emission wavelength) and loading of
additives to make the material more sensitive to, e.g., fast
neutrons, thermal neutrons or gamma rays. It also describes the
benefits of recent technological advances for plastic
scintillators, such as nanomaterials and quantum dots, which allow
features that were previously not achievable with regular organic
molecules or organometallics.
