Alkali halide systems that function as phase‐separated scintillators (PSSs) with light‐guiding properties are sucessfully created. Furthermore, it is the matrix phases of the PSSs which display the light‐guiding properties. CsI–NaCl:Tl is a practical material pair because of its high pixel light output and good spatial resolution.
