Description
Poly(ethylene naphthalate), PEN, is a commonly used high-performance industrial polyester plastic which has been observed to scintillate in the blue wavelength region, without the need for additional materials. Combined with measurements of a high intrinsic radiopurity, this has sparked interest in the material for use in low-background experiments. In this presentation, measurements of custom molded PEN tiles, covering a range of scintillation and structural properties will be discussed.
