摘要/Abstract

摘要： 利用提拉法生长了Si⁴⁺共掺杂Yb∶YAG单晶,该晶体属于立方晶系,O_h¹⁰-Ia3d空间群。掺杂的Si⁴⁺没有改变YAG的晶体结构,但是影响了发光离子的价态。吸收光谱表明Si⁴⁺的引入使得Yb²⁺含量增多,这是由于Si⁴⁺引入了过量的电荷,为满足电价平衡,Yb³⁺转换为Yb²⁺。Yb²⁺的出现降低了Yb∶YAG的发光强度。稳态X射线激发发射光谱结果表明Si⁴⁺共掺杂Yb∶YAG晶体的发光强度是Yb∶YAG的63%,γ射线激发下的光产额降至原来的40%。此外,由于原料中含有多种Yb的同位素,Yb∶YAG除了可以被X射线、γ射线激发出荧光外,还可以与中子发生核反应产生带电粒子,进而引起次级反应产生荧光。荧光的产生仍然由Yb³⁺决定,因此,Si⁴⁺掺入也降低了中子探测灵敏度。

Abstract: The single crystals of Yb³⁺-doped and Si⁴⁺ co-doped Y₃Al₅O₁₂ (YAG) were grown by the Czochralski method. Both crystals belong to the cubic system with the O_h¹⁰-Ia3d space group. The addition of Si⁴⁺ does not change their crystal structure, but changes the luminescent ions valent. The absorption spectrum manifests that the substitution of Al³⁺ by Si⁴⁺ leads to the transformation of Yb³⁺ to Yb²⁺ for the charge balance, and then reduces the luminous intensity of Yb:YAG. The X-ray and γ-ray excited luminescence (XEL) measurement shows that the luminous intensity of Si⁴⁺ co-doped Yb:YAG is about 63% and 40% of Yb:YAG, respectively. Additionally, because of the isotope of Yb, Yb:YAG can even be excited by neutrons with nuclear reaction, the charge particles cause secondary reactions to produce fluorescence. The fluorescence intensity is still determined by Yb³⁺, thus the sensitivity for neutron is also reduced by Si⁴⁺ co-doping.

Key words: Si⁴⁺ doping, Yb:YAG crystal, Czochralski method, scintillation property, detecting sensitivity
