On-line induced absorption measurement on PbWO4, YAlO3:Ce and CsI scintillating crystals

On-line measured radiation-induced absorption spectra and their kinetics are presented for the doped PbWO₄, YAlO₃:Ce and CsI crystals. In the doubly doped PbWO₄:Mo,Y crystals the saturation level of the induced absorption increased with Mo concentration up to 2750 ppm. With a higher concentration it again gradually decreased. Yttrium co-doping around 100 ppm improved considerably the radiation hardness of Mo-doped PbWO₄. Characteristic recovery time of these crystals was about 30 min. Positive influence of Zr⁺⁴ co-doping on characteristics of a set of YAlO₃:Ce samples resulted in decrease in the induced absorption intensity. The presence of very slow recovery processes was in good agreement with thermoluminescence characteristics above room temperature reported earlier. An absorption band round 420 nm appeared in as-grown CsI crystals doped with Tl, and was related to the oxygen contamination.

Scintillation properties of the Yb-doped YAlO3 crystals

Yb³⁺-doped YAlO₃ single crystals were grown by the Czochralski method with a radio frequency heating system. The starting melt compositions of Y_1−xYb_xAlO₃ were varied as x=0.02, 0.1, 0.2, 0.3 and 0.45. Photo- and thermo-luminescence characteristics including emission decays were measured within 4–300 K. Very fast charge transfer luminescence of Yb³⁺ was found, with the typical double peak spectrum at 345 and 525 nm. At room temperature the photoluminescence and scintillation decay curves show a leading subnanosecond decay component without any additional slower processes. The high density of Yb-rich YAlO₃ makes this material a promising candidate for fast scintillators.     

Time-resolved optical absorption in YAlO3 crystals

The present work is devoted to the investigation of transient absorption (TA) induced by a pulsed electron beam (E=250 keV) in pure and doped YAlO₃ (YAP) single crystals. The nature of centers responsible for TA is discussed.     

Electron spin resonance study of Mo centers in YAlO3

Electron spin resonance measurements of Ce-doped YAlO₃ single crystals (40–50 ppm of Ce) grown by Czochralski method from Molybdenum crucibles evidenced two kinds of Mo³⁺ centers. The ESR spectra of both centers were described by spin Hamiltonian with orthorhombic symmetry and an effective electron spin . The experimental g-factors as well as four magnetically nonequivalent positions found for each center support a hypothesis that Mo impurity ion is located at Al site. Under high-temperature annealing and UV irradiation the Mo centers show the change of charge state, indicating, that they are probably involved in the charge carrier capture in the energy transfer and storage processes in this scintillator material.     

Effects of Ce3+ energy level structure on absorption and luminescence properties of Ce-doped YAlO3,Y3Al5O12,and LaAlO3 single crystals

We investigate the spectra and scintillation properties of Ce:YA103,Ce:Y₃Al₅O₁₂,and Ce:LaA103.For Ce:YAlO₃,the excitation spectrum is very similar with the absorption spectrum;for Ce:Y₃Al₅O₁₂ and Ce:LaAlO₃,the excitation spectra are different from the absorption spectra.Further,Ce:YAlO₃ has better scintillation performance than Ce:Y₃Al₅O₁₂ whereas Ce:LaAlO₃ has not demonstrated scintillation performance to date.We also provide reasonable explanations for these experimental phenomena from the viewpoint of energy level structure.

Conversion of VUV to UV and visible in K5Li2LnF10 containing rare-earth from cerium group (Ln=La, Ce, Pr, Nd)

The potential of single crystals K₅Li₂LnF₁₀, for applications as VUV excited phosphors has been examined. The crystals were doped with lanthanide ions (Ce³⁺–Nd³⁺) with concentrations up to 100 at%. The self-quenching of luminescence is strongly reduced in this material. Luminescence spectra in the 50,000–10,000 cm⁻¹ range and excitation spectra in the 40,000–250,000 cm⁻¹ spectral range have been recorded at room and low temperature. Intense visible emission has been observed for Nd³⁺ and Pr³⁺. For the Pr³⁺ ions strong the ¹S₀–¹I₆ transition has been recorded only for concentrated crystals. Efficient conversion of VUV excitation to UV–VIS emission was observed in crystals doped with 3 and 100 at% of cerium. In both cerium-activated crystals the lifetimes of f–d transitions were equal to 32 ns.

EPR evidence of local lattice mode in K3H(SO4)2 and Rb3H(SO4)2 fast-proton conductors

The observation of an anomalous temperature dependence of Mn²⁺ EPR spectra linewidth and nonaxial crystal-field parameter in K₃H(SO₄)₂ and Rb₃H(SO₄)₂ allows one to suggest the presence of “local mode” predicted by Yamada (Ferroelectrics 170 (1995) 23).

X-ray damage characterization in BaLiF3,KMgF3 and LiCaAlF6 complex fluorides

Two-inch sized KMgF₃,BaLiF₃ and LiCaAlF₆ (LiCAF) single crystals were grown by the Czochralski method under a CF₄ atmosphere.

The integral of the induced absorption spectra is significantly lower in LiCAF with respect to the other studied materials. It is found that the amplitude of the F-absorption band is suppressed more than a factor of 3 by Mg-doping. For Mg-doped crystals, the optimum doping concentration is about 0.2 mol% of Mg²⁺.
