BGO is short for bismuth germanate (Bi₄Ge₃O₁₂), a sillenite inorganic oxide crystal that is colorless, transparent and insoluble in water. Irradiation by high-energy rays such as gamma rays and X-rays, or by ions, produces green light peaking at 480nm. Its high cutoff energy, high scintillation efficiency, high energy resolution and nondeliquescent properties make BGO an excellent scintillator with important applications in high-energy physics, nuclear physics, space science, nuclear medicine, geological exploration and other industrial fields.
