Scintillating properties of Ce 3+-doped aluminum garnet single crystalline films (SCF) were investigated. The α-particle excitation of pulsed height spectra is used to measure scintillation response of SCF and (i)YAG:Ce SCF have comparable scintillation properties as YAG:Ce single crystals while (ii)those of LuAG:Ce SCF do not reach those of LuAG:Ce single crystal.
