  • Abstract
    Light output uniformity of Ce doped 6LiCaAlF6 single crystal was researched. Ce doped 6LiCaAlF6 single crystal was grown by Czochralski technique and several parts of the crystal were cut from grown crystal and polished. Position dependence of radioluminescence spectra and pulse height spectra were investigated.
