Abstract

The invention provides a high-light-output bismuth silicate scintillation crystal. A bismuth silicate crystal is doped with Ta<5+> in the doping form of Ta2O5, doping quantity being 0.2-4 mol% / mol. The invention also provides a preparation method of the high-light-output bismuth silicate scintillation crystal. The preparation method includes the steps of: a) synthesizing a doped bismuth silicate polycrystal powder material through a solid phase sintering method, and compressing the doped bismuth silicate polycrystal powder material into compact cylindrical material bulks; b) fixing a seed crystal on a seed crystal position on the bottom of a crucible, and placing the polycrystal material bulks in the crucible and sealing the crucible, placing the crucible in a crystal growing furnace, and controlling temperature to be 1050-1200 DEG C, wherein the growth speed of the crystal is 0.2-0.6 mm / h. Because of doping of the Ta<5+>, light output of the BSO crystal is greatly increased. The preparation method achieves high-light-output and high-quality growth of the bismuth silicate monocrystal, is simple in technical equipment, can grow a plurality of crystal rods simultaneously, and greatly improves the growth efficiency and application of the bismuth silicate scintillation crystal.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention belongs to the field of materials science, and relates to a crystal material, in particular to a bismuth silicate scintillation crystal with high light output and a preparation method thereof. Background technique [0002] Bismuth silicate (Bi 4 Si 3 o 12 , referred to as BSO) is a new type of scintillation crystal, and the famous bismuth germanate (Bi 4 Ge 3 o 12 , referred to as BGO) crystals belong to the cubic crystal system, have similar structures, and have similar physical and chemical properties, such as high density, short irradiation length, small Molière radius, no deliquescence, easy processing and so on. At the same time, the decay time (100ns) of BSO crystal is 1 / 3 of that of BGO, and the irradiation hardness (10 5 ~10 6 rad) is an order of magnitude higher than BGO, and SiO 2 The raw material is cheap, and it is an ideal material to replace BGO, which can be potentially applied in high-energy physics, nuclear medica...
