Abstract. Because of their high stopping power (X0 = 1.14 cm), fast (t = 40 ns) and bright(4 times of BGO) scintillation and good radiation hardness, cerium doped silicate based heavycrystal scintillators (LSO and LYSO) have attracted a broad interest in the high energy physicscommunity pursuing precision electromagnetic calorimeter in severe radiation environment. Wepresent in this paper current status of large size LSO and LYSO crystals adequate for HEPapplications. The optical and scintillation properties and their radiation hardness are discussed.
1. IntroductionIn the last two decades, cerium doped silicate based heavy crystal scintillators have beendeveloped for the medical industry. As of today, mass production capabilities of lutetiumoxyorthosilicate (Lu2(SiO4)O, LSO) [1] and lutetium-yttrium oxyorthosilicate (Lu2(1−x)Y2xSiO5,
LYSO) [2, 3] are established. Because of their high stopping power (> 7 g/cm3), high light yield(200 times of PWO) and fast decay time (40 ns) this material has also attracted a broad interestin the physics community pursuing precision electromagnetic calorimeter, such as the proposedSuperB forward endcap calorimeter [4], the KLOE experiment [5] and the Mu2e experiment [6].Our initial investigation on large size (2.5 × 2.5 × 20 cm) LSO/LYSO crystals also shows thatthis new generation of heavy crystal scintillators has a superb radiation hardness against γ-rays [7], neutrons [8] and charged hadrons [9]. They are thus an excellent material to be usedin a severe radiation environment, such as the proposed high luminosity large hadron collider(HL-LHC). The main obstacles of using these crystals in the experimental physics are two fold:the availability of high quality crystals in sufficiently large size and the high cost associatedwith their high melting point (∼2,000◦). This report is a part of an on-going R&D program tofurther develop this material to be of practical use at the HL-LHC.
2. Properties of Scintillating CrystalsTable 1 lists basic properties of heavy crystal scintillators: NaI(Tl), CsI(Tl), BaF2, CeF3,bismuth gemanade (Bi4Ge3O12 or BGO), lead tungstate (PbWO4 or PWO) and LSO [10].As shown in the table, all crystals, except CeF3, have either been used in, or actively pursuedfor, high energy and nuclear physics experiments. Figure 1 is a photo showing twelve crystalsamples. In addition to samples listed in Table 1 pure CsI, CsI(Na), LYSO as well as LaCl3 andLaBr3 are also shown in this photo although the last two are not yet in mass production stage.Samples are arranged in an order of their density, or radiation length. All non-hygroscopicsamples are wrapped with white Tyvek paper as reflector. Hygroscopic NaI, CsI, LaBr3 andLaCl3 are sealed in packages with two ends made of quartz plates of 3 or 5 mm thick to avoid

function of wavelength for ten samples. The solid black dots in these plots are the theoreticallimit of the transmittance, which was calculated by using corresponding refractive index asa function of wavelength taking into account multiple bounces between the two parallel endsurfaces and assuming no internal absorption [11]. Most samples, except LaBr3 and LaCl3,have their transmittance approaching the theoretical limits, indicating a negligible internalabsorption. The poor transmittance measured for LaBr3 and LaCl3 samples is probably due toscattering centers inside these samples.
It is interesting to note that BaF2, BGO, NaI(Tl), CsI(Tl) and PbWO4 have their emission

spectra well within the transparent region showing no obvious self-absorption effect. The UVabsorption edge in the transmittance spectra of LSO, LYSO, CeF3, LaBr3 and LaCl3, however,cuts into the emission spectra and thus affects crystal’s light output. This self-absorption effectis more serious in long crystal samples used in high energy and nuclear physics experiment asdiscussed for LSO and LYSO crystals [12]. It is well known that a good light response uniformityis crucial to maintain a small constant term for a crystal calorimeter.
Figure 3 shows the 137Cs γ-ray pulse hight spectra measured by a Hamamatsu R1306PMT with bi-alkali cathode for twelve crystal samples. Also shown in these figures are thecorresponding FWHM energy resolution (E.R.). γ-rays spectroscopy with a few percentsresolution is required to identify isotopes for the homeland security application. It is clearthat only LaBr3 approaches this requirement. All other crystals do not provide sufficient energyresolution at low energies.

Despite its poor transmittance the cerium doped LaBr3 is noticed by its bright fastscintillation, leading to the excellent energy resolution for the γ-ray spectroscopic applications.The LSO and LYSO samples have consistent fast decay time (∼40 ns) and photo-electron yield,which is 6 and 230 times of BGO and PbWO4 respectively.

The emission spectraof LSO/LYSO, BGO and CsI(Tl) crystals are also shown in these figures. Table 2 summarizednumerical result of the emission weighted average quantum efficiency for several readout devices.The light output values in Table 1 are listed with the PMT quantum efficiency taken out. Thelight output of LSO and LYSO crystals is a factor of 4 and 200 of that of BGO and PbWO4
respectively.Scintillation light yield from crystal scintillators may also depends on the temperature.
Fig 6 shows light output variations for twelve crystal samples between 15◦C and 25◦C. Thecorresponding temperature coefficients obtained from linear fits are also listed in the figure. Thenumerical result of these fits is also listed in Table 1.
3. LSO/LYSO Crystal CalorimeterLarge size LSO and LYSO crystals are routinely grown in industry [12]. Figure 7 shows four longcrystal samples of 2.5 × 2.5 × 20 cm3 from CTI Molecular Imaging (CTI), Crystal Photonics,Inc. (CPI), Saint-Gobain Ceramics & Plastics, Inc. (Saint-Gobain) and Sichuan Institute ofPiezoelectric and Acousto-optic Technology (SIPAT). Figure 8 shows the spectra of 0.51 MeVγ-rays from a 22Na source observed with coincidence triggers [12]. The readout devices used area Hamamatsu R1306 PMT (Left) and two Hamamatsu S8664-55 APDs (Right). The FWHMresolution for the 0.51 MeV γ-ray is about 12% for the PMT readout, which can be comparedto 15% for the BGO sample. With the APD readout, the γ-ray peaks are clearly visible. Theenergy equivalent readout noise was less than 40 keV for these long LSO and LYSO samples.
LSO/LYSO crystals is also found to be much more radiation hard than other crystalscommonly used in high energy and nuclear physics experiment, such as BGO, CsI(Tl) andPbWO4 [13]. Their scintillation mechanism is not damaged by γ-ray irradiation. Radiationdamage in LSO and LYSO crystals recovers very slow under room temperature but can becompletely cured by thermal annealing at 300◦C for ten hours. The energy equivalent γ-ray induced readout noise was estimated to be about 0.2 MeV and 1 MeV respectively in a

radiation environment of 15 rad/h and 500 rad/h for LSO and LYSO samples of 2.5× 2.5× 20cm3 [7]. Figure 9 (Left) shows an expanded view of the longitudinal transmittance spectrafor three samples before and after several steps of the γ-ray irradiation with integrated doseof 102, 104 and 106 rad. Also shown in the figure is the corresponding numerical values ofthe photo-luminescence weighted longitudinal transmittance (EWLT ). Figure 9 (Right) showsthe normalized average light output as a function of integrated dose for five long samples fromvarious vendors. It is interesting to note that all samples show consistent radiation resistancewith degradations of both the light output and transmittance at 10 to 15% level after γ-rayirradiation with an integrated dose of 1 Mrad.
4. SummaryIn a brief summary, LSO/LYSO crystals are an excellent material for a total absorptionelectromagnetic calorimeter for a future high-energy physics experiment in a severe radiationenvironment. Assuming the same APD-based readout scheme used for the CMS PWOcalorimeter, the expected energy resolution of a LSO/LYSO crystal based electromagneticcalorimeter would be
σE/E = 2%/√
E ⊕ 0.5% ⊕ 0.001/E, (1)
where the stochastic term is dominated intrinsically by the fluctuation of shower leakage asindicated by GEANT simulations. This represents a fast calorimeter over a large dynamicrange with very low noise. Thanks also to the LSO/LYSO low temperature coefficient, such acalorimeter is less demanding to the experimental environment. Because of the crystals excellentradiation hardness, a LSO/LYSO crystal calorimeter is capable of making precision measurementfor electrons, photons and jets and thus provides a great physics discovery potential in a severeradiation environment, like the HL-LHC.
