Scintillation properties of Cs2LiLaBr6 (CLLB) crystals with varying Ce3+ concentration

Abstract Investigations of Ce 3+ -doped Cs 2 LiLaBr 6 (CLLB) crystals show a systematic trend in their scintillation properties with varying Ce concentrations. The concentration studies provide input in the optimization of growth of the CLLB crystals. Scintillation properties viz. radioluminescence, energy resolution, light yield, decay times, and non-proportionality are discussed for samples from 0% to 20% Ce concentration.
