Abstract: The invention pertains to a neutron detector comprising a scintillating material of the generic formula Cs(2-z)RbZLiLn(1-X)X6 : xCe3+, where X is either Br or I, Ln is Y or Gd or Lu or Sc or La, where z is greater or equal to 0 and less or equal to 2, and x is above 0.0005, generally under the form of monocristal. The scintillating material has a remarkably low decay time.
