摘要
Lutetium pyrosilicate (Lu2Si2O7) single crystals were synthesized by using the floating-zone method with 0.1, 0.5, 1.0, 2.0 and 5.0% of Tm-doping concentration. After the phase confirmation by powder XRD, photoluminescence (PL) and scintillation properties were systematically measured, including PL emission map, PL decay time, scintillation spectra, scintillation decay time and pulse height spectra. When we irradiated X-rays, we observed the scintillation emission at 360 and 460 nm caused by Tm3+ 4f-4f transitions. Under 662 keV gamma-ray irradiation, we determined absolute scintillation light yield of 2340 ph/MeV for the 2.0% Tm doped sample. Taking into account whole optical and scintillation properties, 2.0% doping was the best for Tm-doped LPS crystals. (C) 2020 Elsevier B.V. All rights reserved.
