“…Due to issues of direct crystallization of the lithium tungstate (LiWO 4 ) stoichiometric melt, such material has been produced by a solid solution crystal growth with molybdenum admixture resulting in Li 2 Mo 1−x W x O 4 , where x is the molybdenum mole ratio [420]. High quality crystals have been produced from a stoichiometric mixture with x = 0.05 using Cz [420] and LTG Cz [352,421] crystal growth methods.…”

Inorganic crystal scintillators play a crucial role in particle detection for various applications in fundamental physics and applied science. The use of such materials as scintillating bolometers, which operate at temperatures as low as 10 mK and detect both heat (phonon) and scintillation signals, significantly extends detectors performance compared to the conventional scintillation counters. In particular, such low-temperature devices offer a high energy resolution in a wide energy interval thanks to a phonon signal detection, while a simultaneous registration of scintillation emitted provides an efficient particle identification tool. This feature is of great importance for a background identification and rejection. Combined with a large variety of elements of interest, which can be embedded in crystal scintillators, scintillating bolometers represent powerful particle detectors for rare-event searches (e.g., rare alpha and beta decays, double-beta decay, dark matter particles, neutrino detection). Here, we review the features and results of low-temperature scintillation detection achieved over a 30-year history of developments of scintillating bolometers and their use in rare-event search experiments.
