Abstract
Luminescence and scintillation properties of Mo co-doped Y1.5Gd1.5Al2Ga3O12:Ce,Mo (Mo = 0, 300, 600 ppm) multicomponent garnet crystals grown by the micro-pulling-down method were investigated. To investigate temperature stability, temperature dependence of photoluminescence decay time was measured from 77 to 487 K and thermal activation energy was determined. Y1.5Gd1.5Al2Ga3O12:Ce,Mo (300, 600 ppm) samples showed faster scintillation decay time with a similar LY value compared to Mo-free Y1.5Gd1.5Al2Ga3O12:Ce one. Y1.5Gd1.5Al2Ga3O12:Ce,Mo (600 ppm) showed a light yield value of 34,300 photons/MeV along with fast scintillation decay times of 45.2 ns (55 %) +153 ns (45 %) and time resolution of 313 ps. Radioluminescence and afterglow signal were also measured at RT and discussed.
期刊介绍:
Optical Materials has an open access mirror journal Optical Materials: X, sharing the same aims and scope, editorial team, submission system and rigorous peer review.
The purpose of Optical Materials is to provide a means of communication and technology transfer between researchers who are interested in materials for potential device applications. The journal publishes original papers and review articles on the design, synthesis, characterisation and applications of optical materials.
OPTICAL MATERIALS focuses on:
• Optical Properties of Material Systems;
• The Materials Aspects of Optical Phenomena;
• The Materials Aspects of Devices and Applications.
Authors can submit separate research elements describing their data to Data in Brief and methods to Methods X.
