Scintillation properties of Li6Y0.5Gd0.5(BO3)(3):Ce3+ single crystal
The Ce3+ doped mixed crystals of Li6Y(BO3)(3) and Li6Gd(BO3)(3) are grown by Czochralski technique with equal mole ratios of both Yttrium and Gadolinium i.e. Li6Y0.5Gd0.5(BO3)(3). The grown crystals have the dimensions of empyset 10 x 30 mm(2). Powder X-ray diffraction (XRD) analysis confirmed single phase of the grown crystals. X-ray and laser induced luminescence spectra are presented. Scintillation properties such as energy resolution, light yield, decay time and alpha/beta under the excitation of (CS)-C-137 gamma-ray photons and Am-241 alpha-particles are also reported in this article.
