Enhancement of scintillation characteristics by doping ZnWO4 crystals
Institute for Scintillation Materials, National Academy of Sciences of Ukraine, 60 Nauky Ave., 61072 Kharkiv, Ukraine
Abstract:
The influence of doping on the luminescent and scintillation parameters of zinc tungstate crystals was investigated. The reasons for the deterioration of the scintillation characteristics of ZnWO4 caused by molybdenum impurities are discussed. Ways of obtaining scintillators based on ZnWO4 doped with Me1+ and Me3+ and fluorine compounds with improved scintillation parameters are proposed.
Keywords:
zinc tungstate, light output, afterglow, dopants, luminescence, defects.
