This LiInSe₂ thermal-neutron detector uses the company's internally prepared high-quality LiInSe₂ crystal as its neutron-sensitive medium. Lithium in the lattice converts thermal neutrons into charged-particle signals through neutron capture, read by optoelectronics and low-noise electronics. Si-APD or SiPM readout, moderators, shielding and multi-element arrays are configurable. Compact integration suits portable neutron monitoring, space payloads and research instruments. Lithium capture produces the Li(n,alpha)3H reaction, releasing alpha particles and tritium nuclei. Their energy deposition creates readable signals; Si-APD/SiPM conversion, preamplification and digital discrimination produce neutron counts. Energy thresholds, pulse characteristics and structural shielding reduce gamma-background effects.
