Abstract
Provided is a particle detection device and method of fabrication thereof. The particle detection device includes a scintillator array that includes a plurality of scintillator crystals; a plurality of detectors provided on a bottom end of the scintillator array; and a plurality of prismatoids provided on a top end of the scintillator array. Prismatoids of the plurality of prismatoids are configured to redirect particles between top ends of crystals of the scintillator array. Bottom ends of a first group of crystals of the scintillator array are configured to direct particles to a first detector of the plurality of detectors and bottom ends of a second group of crystals of the scintillator array are configured to direct particles to a second detector substantially adjacent to the first detector.
