The work is motivated by the need for cheap garnet-based scintillators for new high energy physics experiments at colliders and medical equipment. During recent years, garnets became among the most studied scintillators due to a dras- tic enhancement of light yield achieved in (Lu,Y,Gd)3(Al,Ga)5O12:Ce multicompo- nent systems. Meanwhile, the production process ofYAG- and LuAG-based crystals is easier and less expensive compared to the multicomponent garnets. This work addresses the preparation process and the optical and scintillation properties ofYAG, YAG:Ce crystals grown in non-precious metal crucibles.
