LuAG(Ce) Cerium doped Lutetium Aluminum Garnet is a well established scintillation material with the main advantages of high density (6.73g/cm3) and fast decay (70ns), which is suitable for thin imaging screens. In addition, Ce:LuAG has a high light yield and a peak emission at 535nm that well matched with photodiode and avalanche diode readout. With very good chemical, mechanical and temperature resistance, Ce:LuAG is also an ideal choice for medical scanning systems and high-energy particle detectors.
OST Photonics can supply LuAG(Ce) crystals and LuAG(Ce) scintillation screens upon requests. We can offer a variety of design options to meet the needs of our customers.
