A study on yttrium doping in lead tungstate crystals
نویسندگان
چکیده
In this paper we present results of a study on the yttrium doping in lead tungstate crystals. The crystal growth by modified Bridgman method is described. Results of trace analysis on raw materials and crystals are presented. The segregation coefficient of yttrium ions in lead tungstate crystals was determined. The scintillation emission and longitudinal transmittance spectra, light output, decay kinetics, light response uniformity and radiation damage were measured. It is found that yttrium doping suppresses slow scintillation component and improves radiation hardness of lead tungstate crystals. r 2002 Elsevier Science B.V. All rights reserved.

متن کاملMonitoring Light Source for Cms Lead Tungstate Crystal Calorimeter at Lhc
Light monitoring will serve as an intercalibration for compact muon solenoid (CMS) lead tungstate crystals in situ at the large hadronic collider, which is crucial for maintaining crystal calorimeter’s subpercent constant term in the energy resolution. This paper presents the design of the CMS electromagnetic calorimeter monitoring light source and high-level distribution system. The correlatio...
