Efficiency Properties of Cerium-Doped Lanthanum Chloride (LaCl<sub>3</sub>:Ce) Single Crystal Scintillator under Radiographic X-ray Excitation

Efficiency Properties of Cerium-Doped Lanthanum Chloride (LaCl<sub>3</sub>:Ce) Single Crystal Scintillator under Radiographic X-ray Excitation

The aim of this study is to evaluate the suitability of crystalline scintillator LaCl<sub>3</sub>:Ce for possible use in hybrid medical imaging systems, such as PET/CT and SPECT/CT scanners. For this purpose, a single crystal (10 × 10 × 10 mm<sup>3</sup>) was irradiated by X-...
