This book introduces and describes in detail the research and development in thin film scintillators, glass ceramics, as well as nanocomposite and optical ceramics prepared by spark plasma sintering. It also features example of an in-depth study of a ZnO-based powder phosphor material. Both technology description and various characterization aspects are provided together with application hints. No other book has been published so far that includes and reviews the scintillator materials covered in this book with their specific technologies. Moreover, technological description is merged with detailed characterization, and the application potential is discussed as well. This book is intended for a wide audience, including postgraduate and PhD students and scientists working in the field of scintillators and phosphors. The extended introductory text, which has a textbook character, will be of immense benefit to students and non-specialists, too. 606 $aScintillators 606 $aNanocomposites (Materials) 606 $aGlass-ceramics 606 $aThin films 615 0$aScintillators. 615 0$aNanocomposites (Materials) 615 0$aGlass-ceramics. 615 0$aThin films. 676 $a620.19 702 $aNikl$b Martin 801 0$bFlBoTFG 801 1$bFlBoTFG 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910151782303321 996 $aNanocomposite, ceramic, and thin film scintillators$92172781 997 $aUNINA
