Abstract

Rod-shaped (Lu_1-xYb_x)₃Al₅O ₁₂ with x=0.05, 0.15, 0.30 and (Y_1-xYb_x) AlO₃ with x=0.05, 0.10, 0.30 single crystals were grown by the micro-pulling-down method. Edge-defined film-fed growth method was used to prepare (Y_0.9Yb_0.1)VO₄ crystal, while Ca ₈(La_1.98Yb_0.02)(PO₄) ₆O₂ crystal was grown by the Czochralski method. Luminescence of these crystals was studied with main attention paid to the charge transfer emission of Yb³⁺. Temperature tuned decay times in the time scale of units - tens of nanosecond was measured as a feature possibly interesting for an application in scintillation detectors in positron emission tomography.
