A single crystal yttrium aluminum perovskite scintillator has a minimum thickness of at least 5 mm and a transmittance of at least 50% at a wavelength of 370 nm. A method for fabricating the yttrium aluminum perovskite scintillator includes acquiring a yttrium aluminum perovskite single crystal boule, annealing the yttrium aluminum perovskite single crystal boule in an oxygen containing environment to obtain a partially annealed crystal, and annealing the partially annealed crystal in an inert environment or a reducing environment to obtain the yttrium aluminum perovskite single crystal scintillator.

The invention relates to a method of producing a crystal from a material with the general composition of Ce.sub.xGd.sub.yY.sub.1?x?yAlO.sub.3 known to the professional public for scintillation crystal detectors, which has not yet been industrially produced by the Czochralski method. The invented method makes it possible to produce crystals with a diameter larger than units of mm. In particular, the invention adds to the initial Czochralski method the steps of annealing the input raw materials as well as the controlled flow of a reducing hydrogen-argon atmosphere through a crystal growth furnace.
