YSO vs. NaI:
  • NaI is easily deliquesced
  • NaI is toxic
  • NaI is fragile
  • NaI needs to be sealed in aluminum alloy to prevent deliquescing and damage, increasing the size and weight of the detector
YSO vs. Ion Chamber:
  • Ion chamber needs to be large in order to have good detection capability
  • At the same size, YSO has much higher sensitivity
  • Ion chamber is extremely sensitive to the environment (i.e. humidity, temperature, air pressure)
