Basic principles of technological shaping of optical properties and radiation hardness of PWO crystals

Technological conditions ensuring growth of optically homogeneous lead tungstate (PWO) crystals are reported. It is shown that the basic scintillator characteristics of PWO grown from highly purified raw material and properly doped with lanthanides are mainly determined by inclusions of oxides W_1−yL_yO_3−x (L=Y, La, Gd; 0<x<0.3). Moreover, surface-located inclusions with structure close to tungstenite may also be of importance. It is demonstrated that the scintillation properties can be intentionally designed by varying the oxygen content in the inclusions x and the surface structure. The optimal value for x and the most favorable surface structure are achieved by proper thermal regimes and environment content during the crystal annealing. The results enabled low-cost fabrication of PWO scintillators with steady and reproducible characteristics acceptable for the CERN project ALICE and ensured production of PWO on an industrial scale by “North Crystals” company at a rate of 125–135 crystals per year from every growth apparatus.     

Influence of the light illumination on thermoluminescence properties of PbWO4

The thermally stimulated properties of PbWO₄ in the temperature range 90–400 K have been investigated on undoped and terbium-doped crystals after X-ray irradiation at 90 K. Doping with terbium changes the concentration of shallow traps, which are responsible for retrapping free electrons and holes. Light illumination can change the distribution of the traps. The optically stimulated luminescence is observed. The influence of light illumination on the TSL curves and emission properties is studied. The possible mechanism of TSL phototransformation is discussed.     

Reactivity in the solid state between CoWO4 and RE2WO6 where RE = Sm, Eu, Gd

Reactivity in the solid state between CoWO₄ and some rare-earth metal tungstates RE₂WO₆ (RE = Sm, Eu, Gd) was investigated by the XRD method. Two families of new isostructural cobalt and rare-earth metal tungstates, Co₂RE₂W₃O₁₄ and CoRE₄W₃O₁₆, were synthesized. The Co₂RE₂W₃O₁₄ phases are formed by heating in air the CoWO₄ and RE₂WO₆ compounds mixed at the molar ratio 2:1, while the CoRE₄W₃O₁₆ phases are synthesized at the molar ratio of CoWO₄/RE₂WO₆ equals to 1:2. The Co₂RE₂W₃O₁₄ phases as well as the CoRE₄W₃O₁₆ compounds crystallize in the orthorhombic system. The Co₂RE₂W₃O₁₄ and CoRE₄W₃O₁₆ compound melt above 1150 °C. A melting manner of the Co₂RE₂W₃O₁₄ and CoRE₄W₃O₁₆ compounds was determined in an inert atmosphere. The formation of CoWO_4−x phase was observed during heating in an inert atmosphere.

半化学法制备Pb(Fe2/3W1/3)O3陶瓷粉体的反应机理

铅系弛豫铁电陶瓷钨铁酸铅Pb(Fe2/3W1/3)O3(PFW)是一种重要的介电材料,具有较大的介电常数(8000)和较低的烧结温度(小于900℃),适用于制备低烧高介的多层陶瓷电容器犤1～4犦。在传统氧化物法合成PFW的过程中,易生成恶化介电性能的钨酸铅(PbWO4或Pb2WO5)或焦绿石相(Pb2FeWO6)等其他相犤3,4犦。尽管通过加入过量5%的Fe2O3可以消除这些其他相,但因含较多的变价铁离子(Fe3+和Fe2+)而产生介电老化的缺点犤5犦。虽然二次合成法被广泛用于制备铅系弛豫铁电陶瓷犤6犦,但对制备PFW陶瓷的效果并不明显,仍有少量的钨酸铅PbWO4存在,并且预烧…     

Seeding and the Non-Hydrolytic Sol-Gel Synthesis of ZrW2O8 and ZrMo2O8

The unseeded non-hydrolytic sol-gel synthesis of ZrW₂O₈ and ZrMo₂O₈ produces trigonal ZrM₂O₈ (M = W, Mo) at 740 and 300–400°C, respectively. Cubic ZrW₂O₈ can be prepared using non-hydrolytic sol-gel methods by seeding with small amounts of preprepared cubic material, and the formation of the trigonal polymorph can be suppressed completely. Seeds with a small particle size are necessary for the preparation of cubic ZrW₂O₈. In contrast, seeding of ZrMo₂O₈ gels with either cubic ZrMo₂O₈ or cubic ZrW₂O₈ only lowers the temperature at which the trigonal phase crystallizes.
