摘要
In this paper,a novel Ce(Gd2 Y)Al5O12/Ce:Y3Al5O12(Ce:GYAG/Ce:YAG)composite scintillation ceramic was designed and fabricated by a solid-state reaction method.The phase,luminescence and scintillation properties were investigated.The Ce:GYAG/Ce:YAG composite ceramic consisting of two-phase has a broad emission band ranging from 500 to 750 nm.The total mass attenuation coefficient of Ce:GYAG/Ce:YAG is 0.3864 cm^-1,in between those of Ce:YAG and Ce:GYAG ceramics.In addition,the composite ceramic had a high light yield of 20430 ph/MeV.By controlling the ratio of GYAG and YAG,the composite ceramic can realize a spectrum design and total mass attenuation coefficient control to meet the requirements for wide-X-ray-energy-range detectors.
