摘要：
Luminescence and scintillation properties of Tm3+ 0.1-15% doped CaF2 crystals were systematically investigated. The crystals were grown by a simple solidification method which allowed us to obtain single crystals conveniently. In X-ray induced radio luminescence spectra, the luminosity of the self-trapped-exciton (STE) emission of CaF2 at 270 nm decreased with increasing of Tm3+ concentration. The Tm3+ 5d-4f transition based emission lines appeared at 175 nm (4f(11)5d high spin state (HS) -> H-3(6)) and at 165 nm (low spin state (LS) to H-3(6)). Pulse height spectra were measured under alpha-ray irradiation by using vacuum ultra-violet (VUV) sensitive photomultiplier tube (PMT) R8778 and Tm3+ 0.1% doped specimen exhibited the highest light yield.
