Distribution of the highly volatile dopant in NaI:Tl crystals grown by the ROST technology
Thallium iodide used as the dopant in NaI:Tl scintillation crystals is a highly volatile component that poses a challenge for crystal growth when pulling from the melt. A theoretical calculation of Tl distribution in NaI crystals grown by an industrial continuous feeding technology ’ROST’ was conducted based on experimental data to evaluate parameters. One-stage feeding and two-stage feeding were considered in the study to achieve a target dopant concentration. The results show both calculated and measured dopant distributions in the crystal, which can help optimize the feeding rates of the raw materials, NaI and TlI.
期刊介绍:
The journal offers a common reference and publication source for workers engaged in research on the experimental and theoretical aspects of crystal growth and its applications, e.g. in devices. Experimental and theoretical contributions are published in the following fields: theory of nucleation and growth, molecular kinetics and transport phenomena, crystallization in viscous media such as polymers and glasses; crystal growth of metals, minerals, semiconductors, superconductors, magnetics, inorganic, organic and biological substances in bulk or as thin films; molecular beam epitaxy, chemical vapor deposition, growth of III-V and II-VI and other semiconductors; characterization of single crystals by physical and chemical methods; apparatus, instrumentation and techniques for crystal growth, and purification methods; multilayer heterostructures and their characterisation with an emphasis on crystal growth and epitaxial aspects of electronic materials. A special feature of the journal is the periodic inclusion of proceedings of symposia and conferences on relevant aspects of crystal growth.
