Abstract
Factors affecting the working parameters of sodium iodide crystals act ivated with thallium were studied. It is demonstrated that application of organosilicon materials for the surface treatment of crystals and optical transmission elements improves the quality of the scintillator crystal surface and its matching with the output window, thus increas ing the working characteristics of the detector.
