Five elpasolite structure chlorides and bromides: Cs2NaYC16, Cs2NaLaC16, Cs2NaGdC16, Cs2LiLaC16 and Cs2LiYBr6 doped by Ce3 ions have been investigated and results of scintillation and luminescent properties of studied crystals under optical,x-and 'y-ray excitation are presented. The position and splitting of Ce3 5d levels in all compounds were determined and result has a good agreement with theory.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
