Description
Scintillation efficiency defines the future of radiation detection. This study examines Rb₂LuI₅ and Rb₂PrI₅ using DFT, TDDFT, and Geant4 simulations. Both compounds show stable orthorhombic structures, moderate band gaps, and strong visible transparency. Short radiative lifetimes and high light yields surpass standard scintillators, while Geant4 results confirm excellent gamma-ray absorption, marking them as strong candidates for next-generation detectors.
