The possibility of growth by the liquid phase epitaxy method of a new type of advanced composite scintillator based on Ce3+-doped single crystalline films (SCFs) of Lu1.5Gd1.5Al1.5Ga3.5O12 garnet and substrates from single crystals (SCs) of Gd3Al2.5Ga2.5O12:Ce garnet is evidenced for the first time in this work. We show the possibility of the simultaneous registration of α- particles and γ-quanta by way of separation of the scintillation pulse height spectra and decay kinetics of SCF and crystal parts of such a composite scintillator.
