Taking two identical 500ml mixing tanks, adding 0.001g of 5N europium oxide, 30g of 5N lutetium oxide, 30g of 5N gadolinium oxide, 180g of ball milling medium and 60ml of ethanol into each mixing tank, then mixing for 12h at a speed of 120r/min, drying and sieving to obtain the mixed powder for preparing the gadolinium-containing compound.

Respectively dry-pressing and molding the mixed powder 1 and the mixed powder 2, and then sintering the mixture in vacuum at 1700 ℃ for 12h to prepare (LuGd)2O3Eu scintillating ceramic sample, sample 1 made of mixed powder 1, and sample 2 made of mixed powder 2. FIG. 1 shows a physical diagram of sample 1, and FIG. 2 shows a physical diagram of sample 2. The relative light output measurements for sample 1 and sample 2 were performed using plate 1417, with the results for sample 1 shown in fig. 3 and sample 2 shown in fig. 4. The results show that the relative light output of the samples prepared from gadolinium spheres is 3.81 times that of steel spheres under the test condition of 90 kV. Gadolinium element and Lu which are ground by gadolinium balls form a solid solution, Fe element introduced by the steel balls is used as impurity ions and exists in a ceramic matrix in the form of a second phase, and strong light absorption centers are generated, so that a sample is black.
Further, two identical 500ml mixing tanks are taken, 0.001g of 5N europium oxide, 30g of 5N lutetium oxide, 30g of 5N gadolinium oxide, 120g of ball milling medium and 60ml of ethanol are added into each mixing tank, then the materials are mixed for 15 hours at a speed of 240r/min, and the mixture is dried and sieved to obtain the mixed powder for preparing the gadolinium-containing compound. Wherein, one mixing pot is added with the gadolinium oxide ceramic prepared in example 2The ball is used as a ball milling medium, and the prepared mixed powder is marked as mixed powder 3; and adding agate balls as a ball milling medium into the other mixing tank, and marking the prepared mixed powder as mixed powder 4. Respectively dry-pressing and molding the mixed powder 3 and the mixed powder 4, and then sintering the mixture in vacuum at 1700 ℃ for 12h to prepare (LuGd)2O3Eu scintillating ceramic sample, sample 3 made of mixed powder 3 is designated as sample 3, and sample 4 made of mixed powder 4 is designated as sample 4. The afterglow test was carried out on samples 3 and 4, and the results are shown in FIG. 5. The results show that the afterglow of the agate ball mixed sample is significantly larger than that of the gadolinium oxide ball mixed sample. The trace impurities introduce defect energy levels in the band gap of the scintillation material, which can trap carriers, thereby affecting the light output, and when the scintillation material is disturbed thermally, the carriers are released and are trapped by activated ions to emit light, thereby causing afterglow.
The foregoing is only a preferred embodiment of the present invention, and it should be noted that modifications can be made by those skilled in the art without departing from the principle of the present invention, and these modifications should also be construed as the protection scope of the present invention.
