Abstract

The results of studies of the scintillation and optical characteristics of new hybrid scintillators based on single-component and multicomponent polymer mixtures are presented. Hybrid scintillators using luminescent salts as scintillation dyes are obtained. The appearance of structures in optical transmission spectra and rapid shortening of the scintillation decay times of the hybrid scintillators are observed in certain ranges of the concentrations of the introduced fusible inorganic fillers. The characteristics of the hybrid scintillators turn out to be not additive with respect to the characteristics of the components incorporated into them.
