-doped materials, near band gap exciton emitters, plastics, and core-valence materials. Possible shortcomings of each of these groups, e.g., suboptimal emission wavelength, nonproportionality, and density, are discussed. Additionally, the engineering approach of quenching the scintillator emission, resulting in a targeted shortening of the decay time, and the possibility of codoping are explored. When selecting and/or engineering a material, it is important to consider not only the characteristics of the scintillator but also relevant SiPM properties, such as recharge time and photodetection efficiency.
