Self-surfactant room-temperature synthesis of morphology-controlled K0.3Bi0.7F2.4 nanoscintillators

K 0.3 Bi 0.7 F 2.4 -based nanoscintillators with multiform morphologies are synthesized through an ultrafast (only 1 min) and aqueous-phase chemical method at room temperature, which exhibit great potential for X-ray detection and imaging applications.
