Abstract This paper reviews the several conditions which determine the luminescence efficiency of scintillators. These are better known than generally realised. The following factors are considered: the maximum possible efficiency, transfer of excitation energy to the luminescent centre, and the quantum efficiency and decay time of this centre. In the final section the scintillator of the future, CeF3, is discussed as a simple case study.
