Abstract
Description
technical field
[0001] The invention relates to a heterovalent ion synergistically doped high-light-yield lead tungstate crystal and a preparation method thereof, belonging to the field of crystal growth. Background technique
[0002] Since the 1990s, the rapid development of nuclear medicine imaging technology (such as X-CT: X-ray computed tomography, SPET-single photon emission computed tomography, PET-positron electron tomography) has greatly promoted the scintillation crystal and inspire people to explore medical scintillation crystals with excellent performance. The main requirements of medical scintillation crystals are: high density, high luminous efficiency, short decay length and decay time. Among them, bismuth germanate (BGO) crystal is the most widely used in PET at present, but its decay time is too long (greater than 300ns), which is not conducive to the improvement of image resolution; while lutetium silicate (LSO) crystal has a short Decay time (40ns) and hi...
