We developed a polyethylene naphthalate based scintillator (ⓇSCINTIREX) recently. It is a plastic scintillator that emits sufficient fluorescent light upon exposure to radiation without the need for wavelength shifting, thus reducing costs of the survey meters. We tested the performance using a OKEN survey meter with a 1 mm thick polyethylene naphthalate sheet, and found that the count rate for a 36Cl source and a 60Co source can be more than doubled when the plastic surface is modified to allow more light to reach the photo detector.}, pages = {879--884}, title = {Radiation counting characteristics on surface-modified polyethylene naphthalate scintillators}, volume = {62}, year = {2013} }
