Abstract
The scintillation characteristics of undoped CeF3, low-doped CeF3 (0.7 mol% of Sr), and mixed Ce0.9Sr0.1F2.9 crystals with tisonite structur e such as the absorption and luminescence spectra, decay constant and light yield are determined. The Sr-doped CeF3 Crystals are shown to ha ve high radiation hardness. Besides, it is easier to grow the high-qua lity CeF3-SrF2 rather than CeF3, because strontium supresses undesirab le impurities.
