Abstract

Yttrium‒aluminum garnet single crystals, including cerium-doped ones, have been grown from melt by Bagdasarov’s method. A comparative spectroscopy study of garnet single crystals and specially prepared ceramics of the same composition has been carried out. The comparative analysis suggests that an increase in the concentration of cerium ions in the garnet crystals improves the spectral-luminescence and scintillation characteristics of the latter and facilitates effective quenching of the substrate luminescence. Ways of optimizing the synthesis conditions to improve the efficiency of scintillators based on {Y\(_{{1-x}}\)Cex}3Al5O12 garnet crystal have been proposed.
