Synthesis and Structure of Li<sub>6</sub>Y(BO<sub>3</sub>)<sub>3</sub> as a Neutron Scintillator
Single phase polycrystalline Li6Y(BO3)3:Ce has been produced with substitutions of Ca, Sc, La, Sr, Gd, and Lu substituting for Y. Samples included isotopes of 6-Li and 11-B through isotopically enriched Li2CO3 and H3BO3. X-ray powder diffraction was used to verify the phase(s) present, while Rietvel...
