About Crystal

Founded in 1960, Crystal is a leading Russian company with over six decades of innovation and progress in advanced materials technology. We specialize in the industrial production of high-quality alkali halide monocrystals, including thallium-activated sodium iodide (NaI(Tl)) and cesium iodide (CsI(Tl)), as well as scintillation detectors based on these materials. Additionally, we produce acoustic monocrystals such as potassium bromide (KBr), potassium chloride (KCl), and sodium chloride (NaCl).

Our Expertise

Crystal is the only manufacturer in Russia of NaI(Tl) and CsI(Tl) monocrystals and scintillation detectors, serving critical industries such as nuclear instrumentation, medical technology, geophysical equipment, dosimetry, biology, and security systems. Our monocrystals and detectors are renowned for their exceptional performance:

• NaI(Tl) monocrystals: Highly effective scintillation materials with excellent resolution, high density, and fast response, ideal for detecting and analyzing gamma and X-ray radiation.

• CsI(Tl) monocrystals: Known for their superior efficiency in detecting gamma rays, widely used in spectrometry and heavy charged particle detection.

• Scintillation detectors: These devices leverage the ability of scintillators to emit visible light when interacting with ionizing radiation, enabling precise detection of alpha, beta, and gamma particles in nuclear physics and related fields.

• KBr, KCl, and NaCl monocrystals: Used in the production of high-precision optical components.

Industry Leadership

Crystal is equipped with state-of-the-art diagnostic tools and a certified Radiation Control Laboratory to ensure uncompromising product quality.
