Ceramic scintillators based on Gd₂O₂S:Pr:Ce convert X-rays into light with high efficiency. Their decay time (t1 / 10 = 5.5 us) is short enough to allow repeated imaging at intervals of 1 ms. They also have low phosphorescence and high radiation stability. This combination of properties has led to widespread use in medical computed tomography. With its wide bandgap (4.6-4.8eV), high chemical stability and high density, Gd₂O₂S can also be used to make phosphors and scintillating ceramics for color television picture tubes, medical imaging equipment and upconversion luminescence. Current GOS scintillating ceramics are highly promising materials for X-ray CT detectors.
