“…This provides many possibilities for pumping and lasing in several spectral regions, taking into account the large number of excitation and relaxation channels. It has been known that the emission color of Pr> depends strongly on the type of host lattice, the concentration, and the pumping conditions and it was reported to cover the spectral range from blue to red (5). The advantage of Pr> as a luminescent activator lies in the fact that the emission of Pr>-activated phosphors is known to be similar to that of Eu> which has long been known as an e$cient red phosphor with great success in cathode ray tubes.…”

“…Moreover, a strong quenching of the emission lines is evidenced by decay times shortening from s and s (Pr 0.1%) to s and s (Pr5%) in the 490 nm and 620 nm emission lines, respectively, see Fig. 2 and [23]. The f-f emission of Pr in YAP is of interest mainly for lasing [24] or upconversion-related [25] purposes.…”

Abstract-A numerous set of Pr-doped YAP single crystals was prepared using Czochralski and micro-pulling down methods. Crystals codoped by bi-, tri-and tetravalent ions were prepared by the latter method as well. The scintillation performance of all the prepared materials was evaluated using radioluminescence, photoelectron yield and scintillation decay measurements at room temperature. The influence of shallow traps was studied by means of thermoluminescence in the 10-350 K temperature range. Though the intrinsic scintillation efficiency of Pr-doped YAP is higher than that of YAP:Ce, enhanced delayed radiative recombination processes are found to be responsible for lower-than-expected photoelectron yield of the former system. The possibilities of further optimization of Pr-doped YAP scintillator are discussed.
