Influence of calcium doping concentration on the performance of Ce,Ca: LuAG scintillation ceramics
Original language description
Ce,Ca:LuAG scintillation ceramics with different Ca2+ co-doping concentrations were prepared by the solid-state reaction method. The concentration of Ce3+ was fixed at 0.3 at% and the concentration of Ca2+ ranged from 0 to 1.2 at%. We systematically studied how the Ca2+ concentration affects the optical quality of Ce,Ca:LuAG ceramics by influencing the microstructure in the vacuum sintering and HIP post-treatment. Good optical transmittance could be obtained with Ca2+ concentrations between 0.05 and 0.8 at%, which reached 76.0–81.9 % at 520 nm. The PL and scintillation decay times decrease with increasing Ca2+ concentration up to 0.6 at% with no clear trend above this value. The light yield (LY) values at different shaping times decrease with increasing Ca2+ concentration but the fast scintillation component (LY0.5 μs/ LY3.0 μs) increases significantly from 79 % to 97 %. The co-doping of Ca2+ also reduces the afterglow level by more than one order of magnitude.
