Abstract:
ZnO:Ga is a promising, high time resolution candidate for use as a fast-ion-loss detector in TJ-II. We compare its ionoluminescence with that of the standard fast-ion-loss detector material, SrGa2S4:EuSrGa2S4:Eutextlessmath display=”inline” overflow=”scroll” altimg=”eq-00001.gif”textgreatertextlessmrowtextgreatertextlessmsubtextgreatertextlessmrowtextgreatertextlessmtexttextgreaterSrGatextless/mtexttextgreatertextless/mrowtextgreatertextlessmntextgreater2textless/mntextgreatertextless/msubtextgreatertextlessmsubtextgreatertextlessmtexttextgreaterStextless/mtexttextgreatertextlessmntextgreater4textless/mntextgreatertextless/msubtextgreatertextlessmotextgreater:textless/motextgreatertextlessmtexttextgreaterEutextless/mtexttextgreatertextless/mrowtextgreatertextless/mathtextgreater (also known as TG-Green), when irradiated by H+H+textlessmath display=”inline” overflow=”scroll” altimg=”eq-00002.gif”textgreatertextlessmrowtextgreatertextlessmsuptextgreatertextlessmtexttextgreaterHtextless/mtexttextgreatertextlessmotextgreater+textless/motextgreatertextless/msuptextgreatertextless/mrowtextgreatertextless/mathtextgreater ions with a range of energies E≤60 keVE≤60 keVtextlessmath display=”inline” overflow=”scroll” altimg=”eq-00003.gif”textgreatertextlessmrowtextgreatertextlessmtexttextgreaterEtextless/mtexttextgreatertextlessmotextgreater≤textless/motextgreatertextlessmntextgreater60textless/mntextgreatertextlessmtexttextgreater textless/mtexttextgreatertextlessmtexttextgreaterkeVtextless/mtexttextgreatertextless/mrowtextgreatertextless/mathtextgreater using a dedicated laboratory setup.
