Abstract
In this paper, the relative light output, energy resolution and count rate of encapsulated LaBr3 (Ce) crystals were tested under the temperature from 25 °C to 175 °C using 137Cs γ radioactive source. The variation of high temperature scintillation performance of LaBr3 and NaI(Tl) crystal packages was measured and analyzed. The results show that the decline of light output of LaBr3(Ce) scintillation crystal is about 80% of that of NaI(Tl) at 175 °C. The energy resolution of LaBr3(Ce) at high temperature 175 °C is approximately 8%, which is better than the 9.9% energy resolution of NaI(Tl) scintillation crystals at room temperature 25 °C. The count rate of LaBr3(Ce) is about 5-6 times more than that of the NaI(Tl) crystal.
