Abstract
The absolute light yield of cerium doped lutetium oxyorthosilicate Lu/sub 2/SiO/sub 5/:Ce/sup 3+/ (LSO:Ce) scintillation crystals is presented. From 60 keV to above 1 MeV the light output increases linearly with the gamma-ray energy and is about 67% of that of NaI(Tl/sup +/). However, a nonlinear response is observed for X-ray energies between 5 and 60 keV. For comparison, we also studied the light yield of a Gd/sub 2/SiO/sub 5/:Ce/sup 3+/ crystal and a CsI:Tl crystal as a function of excitation energy. >
