“…Alpha particles coincided with neutrons in D-T neutron source need to be detected simultaneously to select the neutrons of interest for subsequent use as an active nuclear material's interrogation source, so fast scintillators with extremely high melting point are needed [3]. Fast and efficient scintillator is also very important for hybrid phototube's development [31]. Accordingly, ZnO(Ga) would be very attractive due to its ultrafast scintillation, quite high light yield, strong radiation resistance and non-deliquescence.…”

“…Considering In particular, ZnO doped with Ga has a faster time response than those of the other scintillators (LrBr 3 , BaF 2 etc.) [8]; therefore, it would have prospects of very broad application in ultrafast time measurement, such as in D-T neutron source's triggering detector [3] and hybrid phototube's luminescent screen [31].…”

Owing to its ultrafast scintillation, quite high light yield, strong radiation resistance, and non-deliquescence, ZnO(Ga) is a highly promising choice for an ultrafast X-ray detector. Because of its high deposition rate, good production repeatability and strong adhesive force, reactive magnetron sputtering was used to produce a ZnO(Ga) crystal on a quartz glass substrate, after the production conditions were optimized. The fluorescence lifetime of the sample was 173 ps. An ultrafast X-ray scintillating detector, equipped with a fast microchannel plate (MCP) photomultiplier tube (PMT), was developed and the X-ray tests show a signal full width at half maximum (FWHM) of only 385.5 ps. Moreover, derivation from the previous measurement shows the ZnO(Ga) has an ultrafast time response (FWHM = 355.1 ps) and a high light yield (14740 photons/MeV).
