Abstract
The intrinsic properties of silica aerogels make them well suited for applications requiring high surface area. Therefore, the dispersion of functional nanoparticles (NPs) in these highly porous structures gives access to materials for wide range of applications such as catalysis, energy storage or sensing. The last one is particularly interesting if such composites possess good optical quality. Herein, the synthesis of monolithic and transparent silica aerogels highly loaded with Y3Al5O12:Ce nanocrystals (NCs) (up to 50 wt %) is reported. The developed composite aerogels can be impregnated with liquids, contrary to most of existing aerogels, which crack because of the strong capillary forces. Therefore, this system is designed as a novel concept of 3D porous scintillator, using the efficient photoluminescent and scintillating properties of Y3Al5O12:Ce. The investigated fluid containing low-energetic ionizing radiation emitters impregnates the material, which assures the efficient harvesting of radiation because of highly developed surface area. Such composites prove to be efficient new-type detectors of low-energy beta radiation both in liquids and gases.
