Description

Here we describe application of the low-thermal gradient Chozchralski method to grow high quality radiopure cadmium tungstate crystal scintillators from enriched isotopes 106Cd and 116Cd, development of zinc molybdate from enriched 100Mo, highly radiopure zinc tungstate for double beta and dark matter experiments, production of bismuth germinate for frontier experiments in high energy physics
