説明:
(abstract)Single-crystals of YTaO4, partially substituted with Nb on the Ta site or Tb on the Y one, are potential alternatives to toxic CdWO4 single-crystal scintillators. Compared with UV-emitting YTO, these isovalently substituted Nb:YTO and Tb:YTO compounds emit in the visible, matching to Si-photodiode detectors. Upon Nb or Tb incorporation, a bandgap narrowing takes place. The present study elucidates its origin in detail based on single-crystal diffraction measurements and subsequent density-functional-theory calculations and high-resolution X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy. Nb 4d band overlaps with the conduction band bottom of YTO, causing a red-shifted emission. On the contrary, the Tb ground levels overlap with the top of the valence band, favoring the intraatomic Tb green emission.
