Abstract

Although porous anodized aluminum oxide layer can be used to extract scintillation light from a LYSO scintillator, the low refractive index contrast of porous AAO layer obtains a moderate enhancement. In this investigation, we have designed and fabricated a modified porous anodized aluminum oxide layer with conformal deposition layer of high refractive index material of TiO₂ on the surface of LYSO scintillator, achieving a significant enhancement by 60% with wavelength- and angle-integrated emission intensity. The fabrication method of the present study is simple and low-cost for the large area applications in the field of radiation detection.
