LFS Scintillation Material
Zecotek’s patented (US patent No. 7,132,060) Lutetium Fine Silicate (LFS) series of scintillation crystals are distinguished by their combined high light yields and ultra-fast fast decay times. These performance advantages enable faster, higher resolution operation of medical and industrial imaging devices – including PET, PET-CT and Gamma cameras. The series of LFS crystals, covers a wide range of emission wavelengths which can be tailored to match the spectral sensitivities of various PMT detectors and Zecotek’s flagship range of MAPD avalanche photodetector arrays. The LFS products, LFS-3 and LFS-7 are now available for sale. Their superlative light yields (80-85% - NaI scale) and decay constants (< 40ns) set them apart from other industry contenders. Medical imaging devices can achieve particularly high performance and compact size by combining spectrally matched LFS-3 with MAPD 3 detectors as well as combinations involving LFS-7 with existing PMT’s and MAPD-2 types.
