A new technique for infrared scintillation measurements

Instrumentation and Detectors 2017-04-26 v1

Abstract

We propose a new technique to measure the infrared scintillation light yield of rare earth (RE) doped crystals by comparing it to near UV-visible scintillation of a calibrated Pr:(Lu0.75_{0.75}Y0.25_{0.25})3_{3}Al5_5O12_{12} sample. As an example, we apply this technique to provide the light yield in visible and infrared range up to \SI{1700}{nm} of this crystal.
