Single crystals of BaBrI and CsBa<sub>2</sub>I<sub>5</sub> were grown from the melt by the vertical Bridgman technique. Crystals were doped with 8% and 4% Eu<sup>2+</sup> for BaBrI and CsBa<sub>2</sub>I<sub>5</sub> , respectively. These crystals have higher optical quality and present improved scintillation performance compared to the previously reported values. An estimated light yield of 97,000±5,000 and 102,000±6,000 photons per MeV (ph/MeV) of absorbed gamma-ray energy is now measured for BaBrI:8%Eu<sup>2+</sup> and CsBa<sub>2</sub>I<sub>5</sub>:4%Eu<sup>2+</sup> , respectively. A better energy resolution has also been observed. BaBrI energy resolution for the 662 keV full absorption peak (FWHM over peak position) decreased to 3.4±0.2% and CsBa<sub>2</sub>I<sub>5</sub>:4%Eu<sup>2+</sup> energy resolution decreased to 2.55±0.2% . Additional measurements show both scintillators with an excellent light yield proportionality. Finally, based on optical and x-ray excited emission spectra and decay curves, energy transfer mechanisms in BaBrI and CsBa<sub>2</sub>I<sub>5</sub> scintillators are briefly discussed.</div></div> </li> <li class='list-group-item border-0 py-3 px-0'> <div class='row g-0 align-items-center mb-2'><div class='col-12 col-md-3 fullRecLabelEnglish fw-bold mb-2 mb-md-0'><span class='text-muted small'>Keywords</span></div><div class='col-12 col-md-9 leftDirection leftAlign'>barium compounds; bromine compounds; caesium compounds; europium; gamma-ray detection; scintillation counters; BaBrI:Eu; CsBa<sub>2</sub>I<sub>5</sub>:Eu; gamma-ray energy; optical property; scintillation performance; scintillation property; vertical Bridgman technique; Crystals; Energy measurement; Energy resolution; Optical variables measurement; Stimulated emission; Temperature measurement; Wavelength measurement; Energy resolution; europium; halides; proportionality; scintillator;</div></div> </li> <li class='list-group-item border-0 py-3 px-0'> <div class='row g-0 align-items-center mb-2'><div class='col-12 col-md-3 fullRecLabelEnglish fw-bold mb-2 mb-md-0'><span class='text-muted small'>fLanguage</span></div><div class='col-12 col-md-9 leftDirection leftAlign'>English</div></div> </li> <li class='list-group-item border-0 py-3 px-0'> <div class='row g-0 align-items-center mb-2'><div class='col-12 col-md-3 fullRecLabelEnglish fw-bold mb-2 mb-md-0'><span class='text-muted small'>Journal_Title</span></div><div class='col-12 col-md-9 leftDirection leftAlign'>Nuclear Science, IEEE Transactions on</div></div> </li> <li class='list-group-item border-0 py-3 px-0'> <div class='row g-0 align-items-center mb-2'><div class='col-12 col-md-3 fullRecLabelEnglish fw-bold mb-2 mb-md-0'><span class='text-muted small'>Publisher</span></div><div class='col-12 col-md-9 leftDirection leftAlign'>ieee</div></div> </li> <li class='list-group-item border-0 py-3 px-0'> <div class='row g-0 align-items-center mb-2'><div class='col-12 col-md-3 fullRecLabelEnglish fw-bold mb-2 mb-md-0'><span class='text-muted small'>ISSN</span></div><div class='col-12 col-md-9 leftDirection leftAlign'>0018-9499</div></div> </li> <li class='list-group-item border-0 py-3 px-0'> <div class='row g-0 align-items-center mb-2'><div class='col-12 col-md-3 fullRecLabelEnglish fw-bold mb-2 mb-md-0'><span class='text-muted small'>Type</span></div><div class='col-12 col-md-9 leftDirection leftAlign'><h2 class='mb-0 fw-semibold'>jour</h2></div></div> </li> <li class='list-group-item border-0 py-3 px-0'> <div class='row g-0 align-items-center mb-2'><div class='col-12 col-md-3 fullRecLabelEnglish fw-bold mb-2 mb-md-0'><span class='text-muted small'>DOI</span></div><div class='col-12 col-md-9 leftDirection leftAlign'>10.1109/TNS.2011.2166999</div></div> </li> <li class='list-group-item border-0 py-3 px-0'> <div class='row g-0 align-items-center mb-2'><div class='col-12 col-md-3 fullRecLabelEnglish fw-bold mb-2 mb-md-0'><span class='text-muted small'>Filename</span></div><div class='col-12 col-md-9 leftDirection leftAlign'>6060932</div></div> </li> <div class='list-group-item border-0 py-3 px-0'> <div class='row g-0 align-items-center'><div class='col-12 col-md-3 fw-bold mb-2 mb-md-0'><span class='text-muted small'>Link To Document</span></div><div class='col-12 col-md-9 leftDirection leftAlign'><a class='text-break' href='https://search.isc.ac/dl/search/defaultta.aspx?DTC=49&DC=1362065' target='_blank' rel=$ https://search.isc.ac/dl/search/defaultta.aspx?DTC=49&DC=1362065
