Abstract

High-resolution X-rays imaging requires thin films of dense materials with high light yield under X-ray excitation. Polycrystalline films of europium-doped gadolinium and lutetium oxide have been prepared by sol-gel method. The scintillation performances of these compounds for X-rays imaging are presented and discussed.
