Abstract

Embodiments of the subject invention relate to high efficiency plastic scintillators that emit intense light when exposed to ionizing radiation. Specific embodiments of the subject invention pertain to material compositions for providing high-intensity, scintillation light output in the presence of ions, which can be used for making scintillators more sensitive to the presence of ionizing radiation.
