摘要
Single -crystal growth of Tm3+-doped Y2O3, Sc2O3, and Lu2O3 sesquioxides, with a melting point around 2400 degrees C, by the micropulling down technique is reported. Crystal quality and composition of the crystals were evaluated by rocking curve and energy-dispersive X-ray (EDX) analyses, respectively. Optical properties including optical transmittance and photoluminescence decay profiles were also examined. Furthermore, scintillation performance of the crystals including pulse height spectra and radioluminescence spectra under alpha-ray and gamma-ray excitation was evaluated.
