Abstract
Coefficients of thermal expansion (CTEs) of oriented LSO:Ce using I2/a setting along axes a, b, and c were measured by push-rod dilatometer in the temperature range of 28–1500°C. Results show that CTE of LSO:Ce in the temperature range 28–1500°C (and also to 2100°C) lies in the range of 5×10−6°C−1–11×10−6°C−1. CTEs of LSO:Ce in axes a, b, and c crystallographic directions are functions of temperature and arranged in decreasing order, showing that the strength of chemical bonds along axes a, b, and c should be arranged in increasing order.
