Abstract

The invention discloses a rare-earth-ion-doped LiGdI4 microcrystalline glass and a preparation method thereof. The microcrystalline glass is composed of the following components in percentage by mole: 70-75 mol% of TeO2, 13-18 mol% of ZnF2, 10-11 mol% of LiGdI4 and 1-3 mol% of LnI3. The LnI3 is CeI3, EuI3 or TbI3. The preparation method comprises the following steps: preparing TeO2-ZnF2-LiGdI4-LnI3 glass by a fusion process, and carrying out heat treatment to obtain the transparent LiGdI4 microcrystalline glass. The LiGdI4 microcrystalline glass has the advantages of deliquescence resistance, favorable mechanical properties, higher short-wavelength blue-violet light transmission rate, strong light output, quick attenuation, favorable energy resolution, favorable time resolution and the like. The preparation method of the microcrystalline glass is simple and lower in production cost.

Description

technical field [0001] The present invention relates to a rare earth ion doped glass ceramics, in particular to a rare earth ion doped LiGdI used as a scintillation material 4 Glass-ceramic and its preparation method. Background technique [0002] Scintillation material is a light functional material that can emit visible light under the excitation of high-energy rays (such as x-rays, γ-rays) or other radioactive particles. It is widely used in nuclear medicine diagnosis, high-energy physics and nuclear physics experimental research, industry and geology. exploration and other fields. Depending on the application field, the requirements for scintillators are also different, but in general scintillator materials should have the following characteristics: high luminous efficiency, fast fluorescence decay, high density, low cost and good radiation resistance. Scintillation crystals generally have the advantages of radiation resistance, fast decay, and high light output, but s...
