Abstract
Description
technical field
[0001] The invention relates to a scintillation crystal, in particular to a cerium-manganese co-doped yttrium (lutetium) aluminate ultrafast scintillation crystal and a preparation method thereof. Background technique
[0002] With the development of high-energy physics and nuclear detection technology, the requirements for scintillators are increasing, especially with the rapid development of fast electronics, such as photomultiplier tubes, micro-channel plates and semiconductor detectors. The performance and counting rate of stacking becomes a new hot research issue. The most critical factor to improve these properties is to increase the decay time of scintillation materials, and to find scintillation materials with ultrafast scintillation properties. Ultrafast scintillators usually require decay times on the order of 10 nanoseconds. The most commonly used ultrafast scintillation method is barium fluoride (BaF 2 ) and lead tungstate (PbWO), the fast comp...
