摘要：
Following the investigations of the structure and scintillation properties of Ca-doped zinc tungstate powder [phys. stat. sol. (a) 204, 730 (2007)] a single-crystal of ZnWO4-Ca (0.5 mol%) was grown and characterised. The relative light output, energy resolution and decay characteristics were measured for pure and Ca-doped ZnWO4 scintillatiors. An increase in the light yield of similar to 40% compared with the undoped crystal, and an energy resolution 9.6% (Cs-137) were obtained for Ca-doped ZnWO4. The observed improvement is attributed to the reduction of self-absorption (bleaching) of the crystal. The cause of bleaching as well as the possible contribution of scattering is discussed.
