6.4.4 Interaction Mechanisms in Hybrid Detectors

In hybrid detectors, multiple detection mechanisms are present in the same detection volume. For example, a detector could be sensitive to both thermal neutrons and have good γ-ray detection capabilities. In capture-gated detectors [45], a fast neutron produces a scattering pulse and a capture pulse within the same active volume. These detectors typically consist of organic scintillators doped with a neutron absorbing medium such as boron, cadmium, or lithium.
