In this review the major achievements and research and development (R&D) trends in the field of single crystal scintillator materials in the last decade are described. Two material families are included, namely those of halide and oxide compounds. In most cases the host crystals are doped by Ce3+, Pr3+ or Eu2+ rare earth ions. Their spin- and parity-allowed 5d-4f transitions enable a rapid scintillation response, on the order of tens to hundreds of nanoseconds. Technological recipes, extended characterization by means of optical and magnetic spectroscopies and theoretical studies are described./n
