Organic semiconductors (OSCs) are cheap, easy to process and scalable to large area devices. As a result of decades of experience with OSCs at QMUL, we have overcome many problems traditionally associated with their stability to develop long lived diode and transistor based radiation detectors. We have total control the whole chain from precursor organic molecule synthesis for many materials...

Radiation damage to optical materials is a critical limiting factor in many sensors systems. I will discuss radiation-induced absorption in scintillators and fluorescent wavelength shifters and also in materials, primarily glasses, used as faceplates in photomultiplier tubes and in camera lenses. I will use examples from Particle Physics and Space Science and discuss the use of optical ray...
