X-ray-Induced Scintillation Properties of Nd-Doped Bi<sub>4</sub>Si<sub>3</sub>O<sub>12</sub> Crystals in Visible and Near-Infrared Regions

Undoped, 0.5, 1.0, and 2.0% Nd-doped Bi<sub>4</sub>Si<sub>3</sub>O<sub>12</sub> (BSO) crystals were synthesized by the floating zone method. Regarding photoluminescence (PL) properties, all samples had emission peaks due to the 6p–6s transitions of Bi<sup>3+...
