摘要
Scintillation and photoluminescence (PL) properties of undoped and Ce-doped Ca3Sc2Si3O12 (CSSG) single crystals were investigated. The crystal samples were synthesized by the floating zone (FZ) method. The Ce-doped CSSG samples showed PL spectrum with a broad feature peaking around 510 nm. From decay constants of the corresponding PL emission, it was confirmed that the origin was due to the 5d-4f transitions of Ce3+ ions. In addition, the Ce-doped CSSG samples showed scintillation induced by X-rays with a spectrum, peaking around 510 nm as similarly seen in PL. All the samples exhibited a photoabsorption peak in the pulse height spectra measured under Am-241 gamma-ray irradiation. The absolute scintillation light yield (LY) was the highest for the 0.1% Ce-doped CSSG sample, and the value was 3,300 ph/MeV.
