Abstract

     Generally, detectors for Scanning Electron Microscope (SEM) or X- ray imaging scope are made by bulk crystal of scintillation materials. Cystal growth process takes a long time or many days. After that the bulk crystals are sliced into many pieces of film. There are also losses of expensive materials during the slicing process. Liquid phase epitaxy (LPE) is a new candidate of production process. It takes a shorter production time or within one day and exhibit a more ecconomic way becuase we do not need the slicing process any more. But the selection of excellent LPE materials for detection technology are under investigated, nobody knows what exactly they are. In this work, we propose the (Gd2Y)(Al5-xScx)O12:Ce,Mo (x = 0, 1, 1.5, 2) single crystalline fime grown by the LPE technique. The LPE film can be the good efficiency material for many imageing technology in the future.
