The growth of high-quality and large-size cerium-doped lutetium yttrium orthosilicate (Ce:(LuY)2SiO5, Ce:LYSO) crystals with lower cost has great influence on their applications in various physical devices. According to the chemical bonding theory of single crystal growth, the fast thermodynamic growth direction of Ce:LYSO is [010] direction. In this work, the maximum pulling rate of 3.5 mm/h is obtained along [010] direction of Ce:LYSO via the Czochralski (Cz) method. Finally, Ce:LYSO bulk single crystals with diameter of 64 mm and length of 220 mm and mass of 4.2 kg are grown. The luminescence performance of low-doped Ce:LYSO for nuclear irradiation (22Na) detector device was studied. Light yield of 26193 ph/MeV and decay time of 38 ns are obtained. The present work provides a promising fast growth approach to achieving large size functional bulk crystal via both thermodynamic and kinetic controls.

掺铈镥钇原硅酸盐单晶的快速生长及其闪烁特性

低成本高品质大尺寸掺铈镥钇原硅酸盐(Ce:(LuY) 2 SiO 5 ,Ce:LYSO)晶体的生长对其在各种物理器件中的应用具有重要影响。根据单晶生长的化学键理论,Ce:LYSO的快速热力学生长方向为[010]方向。在这项工作中,通过 Czochralski (Cz) 方法沿 Ce:LYSO 的 [010] 方向获得了 3.5 mm/h 的最大提拉速率。最后,生长出直径为 64 mm、长度为 220 mm、质量为 4.2 kg 的 Ce:LYSO 块状单晶。低掺杂 Ce:LYSO 对核辐射的发光性能 ( 22Na) 检测器装置进行了研究。获得了 26193 ph/MeV 的光产量和 38 ns 的衰减时间。目前的工作提供了一种通过热力学和动力学控制实现大尺寸功能块状晶体的有前途的快速生长方法。
