Methods and apparatus for gamma-ray spectroscopy and like measurements
TL;DR: Improved borehold logging methods and apparatus for detecting and measuring photon and other radiation from earth formations are described in this article, where the radiation is detected by a scintillator and photomultiplier tube.
Journal ArticleDOI
Non-linear Response In The Scintillation Yield Of Lu/sub 2/ SiO/sub 5/ O:Ce/sup 3+/
TL;DR: The absolute light yield of cerium doped lutetium oxyorthosilicate Lu/sub 2/SiO/sub 5/Ce/sup 3+/ (LSO:Ce) scintillation crystals is presented in this article.
Journal ArticleDOI
Geometry and surface treatment dependence of the light collection from LSO crystals
TL;DR: In this article, the authors explore both a specular and diffuse surface reflector finish, using LSO crystals that are either polished or etched, and find that the light collection is characterized by a maximum output (based on the photopeak position when excited at the PMT end) and depth-dependent loss factor.
Journal ArticleDOI
Crystal growth and characterization of CsSr1–xEux I3 high light yield scintillators
TL;DR: In this article, the authors report on single crystal growth and characterizations of a new scintillation material: CsSr 1-x Eu x I 3 (0 ≤ x ≤ 1).
Journal ArticleDOI
Photostimulated luminescence and thermoluminescence of LSO scintillators
TL;DR: In this article, an anti-correlation is found between the light output under gamma-ray irradiation and the trap concentration in the crystal, and Annealing experiments suggest that the traps and the recombination centers may be related to oxygen vacancies.
