The present work reviews some fundamental aspects of scintillators, including the light yield,
decay time, emission wavelength, afterglow, timing resolution and energy resolution …

Undoped Lu2Si2O7 (LPS), Y2Si2O7 (YPS), and Gd2Si2O7 (GPS) single crystals are
prepared by the floating-zone (FZ) method. The X-ray diffraction (XRD) patterns show the …

Abstract The photoluminescence (PL), scintillation, and dosimetric properties of Tb-doped
MgAl 2 O 4 single crystals were evaluated. In terms of PL and scintillation properties, the Tb …

Abstract Lutetium pyrosilicate (Lu 2 Si 2 O 7) single crystals were synthesized by using the
floating-zone method with 0.1, 0.5, 1.0, 2.0 and 5.0% of Tm-doping concentration. After the …

Series of 1.0% Terbium (Tb)-doped rare-earth pyrosilicate single crystals including
Lu2Si2O7 (LPS), Y2Si2O7 (YPS), Gd2Si2O7 (GPS), and La2Si2O7 (LaPS) have been …

Five samples of lanthanum pyrosilicate (La2Si2O7) single crystals with 0.5–10.0%
Praseodymium (Pr)-doping concentrations were synthesized by the floating-zone method …

By differential thermal analysis (DTA) is was shown that the pseudo-binary system Tb 2 O 3–
SiO 2 contains intermediate compounds Tb 2 SiO 5, Tb 4 Si 3 O 12 and Tb 2 Si 2 O 7. All …

As an investigation of Lu-based scintillators, the 0.05, 0.1, 0.5, and 1.0% Pr: SrLu 2 O 4
single crystals were synthesized by the floating zone method. Pr: SrLu 2 O 4 exhibited the …

Gadolinium pyrosilicate (GPS, Gd2Si2O7) single crystals with different doping
concentrations of Tb (0.1–2.0 mol%) are successfully fabricated using the floating-zone …

Abstract Pr-doped (Lu 1− x, Y x) 2 Si 2 O 7 (x= 0.25, 0.5, and 0.75) crystals were synthesized
by the floating zone method. Emission peaks due to 5d–4f transitions of Pr 3+ were …
