摘要: Highlights: • Single crystalline films of Lu{sub 3−x}Gd{sub x}Al{sub 5}O{sub 12} garnets at x = 0 ÷ 3.0 were grown by LPE method onto YAG substrates. Lattice constant 3−}Gd{sub 12}:Ce film and the misfit m between substrate changed linearly with increasing Gd content. Effective Gd{sup 3+}–Ce{sup 3+} energy transfer occurs in films. Best scintillation light yield is observed 3}Al{sub 2.4}Gd{sub 0.6}Al{sub Increase content 1.5–2.5 range results decreasing LY - Abstract: The work related to growth scintillators based on single (SCF) Ce{sup doped mixed rare-earth Liquid Phase Epitaxy (LPE) method.
