Probe - RAP Scintillation Probe / CsI (Tl) - Cesium Iodide Thallium
Description
The CsI (Tl) crystal used in Radiation Alert® Probes has a higher atomic number, is more rugged, and less hygroscopic than a typical Nal detector. The improved gamma ray absorption allows a thinner crystal to be used, effectively reducing the background count rate.
