摘要: 本文采用垂直坩埚下降法,生长出一系列直径3英寸(1英寸=2.54 cm)的掺铈氯铯锂钇(Cs2LiYCl6:Ce,简称CLYC:Ce)晶体,LiCl摩尔配比为55%~60%。对晶体毛坯的顶端不透明部分进行X射线衍射测试,结果表明,富Li的组分配比能有效抑制Cs3YCl6相生成。LiCl摩尔配比为57%时得到的晶体中CLYC相的体占比最大,等径完整长度达80 mm。测试了该组分下获得的76 mm×76 mm CLYC:Ce封装晶体的闪烁性能,其对137Cs 662 keV γ射线的能量分辨率达到4.88%,241Am-Be中子源的脉冲波形甄别(PSD)品质因子(FOM)值为4.18,表现出优异的中子-伽马甄别性能。

Abstract: In this paper, a series of 3-inch (1 inch=2.54 cm) diameter Cs2LiYCl6:Ce (CLYC:Ce) crystals with LiCl molar ratios of 55%~60% were grown by vertical Bridgman method. XRD patterns of opaque initial end of the crystals show that the Li-rich group distribution ratio can effectively inhibit the generation of the Cs3YCl6 phase. The optimal molar ratio of LiCl for high quality CLYC is 57%, where the volume ratio of CLYC phase to the total ingot is the largest, and isometric complete length up to 80 mm. Scintillation properties such as relative light output, energy resolution and figure of merit (FOM) of 76 mm×76 mm CLYC:Ce crystal obtained under the optimal proportioning condition were tested. The results show that 4.88% energy resolution is measured at 662 keV of 137Cs γ rays. The figure of merit (FOM) of pulse shape discrimination (PSD) measured with a 241Am-Be neutron source is 4.18. The study indicates that CLYC:Ce crystal has excellent neutron-gamma discrimination performance.

Key words: Cs2LiYCl6:Ce crystal, Bridgman technique, energy resolution, pulse shape discrimination, figure of merit
