摘要
The advancement of contemporary X-ray imaging heavily depends on discovering scintillators that possess high sensitivity,robust stability,low toxicity,and a uniform size distribution.Despite significant progress in this field,the discovery of a material that satisfies all of these criteria remains a challenge.In this study,we report the synthesis of monodisperse copper(Ⅰ)-iodide cluster microcubes as a new class of X-ray scintillators.The as-prepared microcubes exhibit remarkable sensitivity to X-rays and exceptional stability under moisture and X-ray exposure.The uniform size distribution and high scintillation performance of the copper(Ⅰ)-iodide cluster microcubes make them suitable for the fabrication of large-area,flexible scintillating films for X-ray imaging applications in both static and dynamic settings.
