摘要
Ce:(MgxCa1-x)HfO3 (x = 0.5, 2.5, 5, and 10%) single crystals were successfully grown by the floating zone method, and their photoluminescence (PL) and scintillation properties were investigated. A broad luminescence band with a maximum at 430 nm was observed in both the PL and scintillation spectra. The PL quantum yield (QY) improved with the substitution of Mg, and the PL QY of Ce:(MgxCa1-x)HfO3 reached 50%. Fast decay due to the 5d-4f transition of Ce3+ was observed for both the PL and scintillation. Ce:(MgxCa1-x)HfO3 (x = 5%) showed the highest light yield of similar to 9500 photons/MeV among the synthesized samples, and this value is higher than that of common X-and gamma-ray detection scintillators such as Bi4Ge3O12 and Ce:Gd2SiO5 single crystals.
