✦ Synopsis


Lutetium iodide (LuI 3 ) is a new addition to the family of Ce-doped lanthanide trihalide scintillating materials. Crystals of this material show hexagonal structure with density of 5.6 g/cm 3 and have been grown by the Bridgman method. Under X-ray excitation this material exhibits broad, cerium based emission that peaks at 475 and 520 nm. The fastest and major component of scintillation time profile of LuI 3 :Ce emission decays with a 31 ns time constant. The light yield of LuI 3 :Ce for thin samples ($0.2 mm) was estimated to be $50,000 photons/MeV.

Emission, excitation and X-ray excited spectra together with fluorescence and scintillation decays of Ce3+-doped LUAIO, single crystals are presented. The results have shown that LuAlO,:Ce could be a fast (T= 17 ns) and efficient scintiilator. Comparison of the X-ray excited spectra of LuAIO,:Ce and
