Scintillation Properties of 6LiI(Eu) in Cryogenic Temperatures

Scintillation Properties of 6LiI(Eu) in Cryogenic Temperatures We measured emission wavelength spectra, scintillation decay time and scintillation light yield of 6LiI(Eu) in the temperature range from 4.2 K to 300 K. We observed that the scintillation decay time was almost constant (1.3 μs) below 100 K. At 4.2 K the light yield was found to increase to 6 times higher than that at 300 K. The 6LiI(Eu) is expected to be utilized for spectroscopic measurement of fast neutrons by operating at 4.2 K. http://www.deepdyve.com/assets/images/DeepDyve-Logo-lg.png Journal of Low Temperature Physics Springer Journals

Abstract

We measured emission wavelength spectra, scintillation decay time and scintillation light yield of 6LiI(Eu) in the temperature range from 4.2 K to 300 K. We observed that the scintillation decay time was almost constant (1.3 μs) below 100 K. At 4.2 K the light yield was found to increase to 6 times higher than that at 300 K. The 6LiI(Eu) is expected to be utilized for spectroscopic measurement of fast neutrons by operating at 4.2 K.
