Problems solved by technology

However, the traditional crucible descending method for growing lanthanum bromide crystals has the following disadvantages: (1) It involves a complete set of sophisticated descending system, which is easily affected by the external environment and requires professional maintenance and maintenance. The interface is constantly disturbed due to the descending process, resulting in internal stress; (2) Since the growth furnace is a fully enclosed structure, the temperature field should not be adjusted once it is built, and it cannot better match crystals of different sizes; (3) It takes up a lot of space, Maintenance is extremely inconvenient

Abstract

The invention provides a method for preparing a cerium lanthanum bromide crystal by use of a crystal growing device with an adjustable temperature field. A thermal insulation material layer with adjustable size and easy to replace is adopted; only one-section heating is needed rather than crystal transformation or a platform raising / lowering system. By adjusting the size of the thermal insulation material layer, the temperature field of a furnace is suitable for growing the cerium lanthanum bromide crystal. According to the method provided by the invention, the crystal is grown through a totally static way without a moving mechanism. The shortcomings of traditional Bridgman-Stockbarger method such as high requirement on precision of a lowering system, difficulty batch copying due to relatively great difference of furnaces and much space occupation are overcome. Programmed growth of the cerium lanthanum bromide crystal is realized easily, the control on a growing surface of the cerium lanthanum bromide crystal is remarkably facilitated, the growing environment is stable, and the crystal defects can be effectively avoided. The crystal growing device is easy to prepare and convenient to maintain and clean.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention belongs to the field of deep processing of rare earth materials, and in particular relates to a method for preparing lanthanum cerium bromide crystals using a crystal growth device with adjustable temperature field. Background technique [0002] Scintillation crystals can be made into detectors, and have great application prospects in the fields of high-energy physics, nuclear physics, imaging nuclear medicine diagnosis, geological exploration, astrophysics, and safety inspection. With the rapid development of nuclear science and technology and other related technologies, its application fields are constantly expanding. Different application fields also put forward more and higher requirements for inorganic scintillators. Traditional NaI:TI, BGO and other scintillation crystals can no longer meet the special requirements of new application fields.
