Title: Modified floating-zone crystal growth of Mg 4 Ta 2 O 9 and its scintillation performance

Abstract

Rods of single crystal MgTaO 9 were produced free of macroscopic defects and their scintillation properties including afterglow were measured. The compound characteristics make it a candidate for high energy X-ray radiography applications.
