摘要: The crystals of 0.02%, 0.05%, 0.1%, and 0.5% Sn doped LiI are grown by the vertical Bridgman technique. luminescence scintillation properties investigated. X-ray excited emission spectrum (Sn) showed a broad band between 400–650 nm wavelength range at room temperature. Such is attributed to $\hbox {Sn}^{2 +}$ ion. Scintillation such as energy resolution, decay time profiles, light yield measured under 662 keV ( $^{137}\hbox {Cs}$ ) $\gamma $ -ray excitation A maximum $6000 \pm 600 \ \hbox{ph/MeV}$ single two exponential components excitation. dependence on temperature also presented. Changes in from 295 K down 10 K. 50 K found be nine times higher than that
