Abstract
Spectrometric characteristics of ionizing radiation detectors based on Bi4Ge3O12 and CdWO4 scintillators were calculated as a function of si ze, shape (rectangular or cylindrical) and reflector type. Unlike prev ious works, allowance was made for the dependence of the diffuse refle ction indicatrix on the light incidence angle which is of importance f or light transfer in a scintillator. The calculation method was verifi ed by the experimental statistics. The regions of parameters are deriv ed where the rough or polished version of the reflecting surface is pr eferable.
