Phoswich Detectors in Sensing Applications.

Herein, we review studies of the integration of Phoswich detectors with readout integrated circuits and the associated performance in a radiological sensing application. The basic concept and knowledge of interactions with scintillation materials and the mechanisms and characteristics of radiological detection are extensively discussed. Additionally, we summarize integrated multiple detection systems and Phoswich detectors in radiological measurements for their device performance. Moreover, we further exhibit recent progress and perspective in the future of Phoswich-based radiological detection and measurement. Finally, we provide perspectives to evaluate the detector performance for radiological detection and measurement. We expect this review can pave the way to understanding the recent status and future challenges for Phoswich detectors for radiological detection and measurement.
