YAlO3: Ce scintillators: application for X- and soft γ-ray detection

Experimental quantification of annular dark-field images in scanning transmission electron microscopy

“…These detectors exhibit the necessary properties for quantifying HAADF images. In particular, YAP is resistant to radiation damage and the decay lifetime for YAP is $30 ns [10,11]. The short lifetime ensures that adjacent image pixel intensities do not affect one another.…”

LuAlO/sub 3/:Ce-a high density, high speed scintillator for gamma detection

“…As the LuAP count rate is 60% that of the YAP count rate and the absolute luminosity for YAP is 16,000 photons per MeV of deposited energy [5], we estimate the luminosity of LuAP to be 9,600 photons/MeV.…”

“…properties of cerium doped lutetium aluminum perovskite LuAl03, the lutetium analog of YAP, a scintillator known for its high light output and short decay time, albeit relatively low density and atomic number [5]. By analogy, we refer to this material as LuAP, noting that lanthanum aluminum perovskite is frequently referred to as LAP.…”

Study on cracking and low-angle grain boundary defects in YAlO3 crystal

“…Thus, Ce:YAP crystal is a promising material and has been widely used in nuclear physics, medical imaging, g-camera, SEM, X-ray probing fields, etc. [4][5][6][7][8][9][10]. The scintillation and optical behavior is determined by a set of specific characteristics-first of all, the crystal perfection.…”
