Abstract(in English) With the recent advancement of radiation-detection technologies, the demands of higher performances of scintillators are considerably increasing. Scintillators are a class of phosphors which shows luminescence upon incident of ionizing radiations; therefore, one can use scintillators for radiation detections with a use of photodetectors together. Fundamental properties of scintillators include high light yield and short decay time. As represented in NaI:Tl and YAG:Ce as used in practice, scintillator materials in general consist of inorganic insulator as a host matrix and transitional metals or rare-earth ions as luminescent centre. Therefore, the luminescent properties strongly depends on the radiative electronic transitions of dopants and the ones showing the shortest lifetime are on the order of several tens nanoseconds. In contrast, some semiconductors show potentially higher scintillation light yield and even shorter lifetimes. For the latter reasons, semiconductor materials are of our great interest for scintillator applications, and scintillation properties of Ga2O3 in addition to general aspects of scintillators are discussed.
