Nonstoichiometric Lu3Al5+xO12 (x= 0.05, 0.15, 0.35, 0, -0.05, -0.15, -0.35) crystals were grown by the mu-PD method. Luminescence and scintillation properties such as absorption, excitation and emission spectra, light yield and decay time were evaluated. Expected anti-site defect related host emission have been observed in 250-420nm Emission intensity was increased by increasing the nonstochiometry. The x=-0.35 sample showed the highest light yield of around 12000 photons/MeV and slowest scintillation decay time of 1.96 mu s.
