ND:CE:YAG CRYSTAL CAN BE FUN FOR ANYONE

Radiation induced recharging of Ce3+ and Ce4+ ions in Ce and Nd doped yttrium-aluminium garnet crystals was observed. This influence relies on the Ce3+ ion focus and the kind of ionizing radiation.The results clearly show that the growth environment force has a more major influence on defect formation compared to the crystal rotation price.
