    Abstract: A method for rock identification includes the steps of receiving a rock slice image transmitted by an image acquisition device, generating a geometric feature, a mineral feature and a structural feature corresponding to a rock slice based on the rock slice image, and generating an identification result of the rock slice based on the geometric feature, the mineral feature and the structural feature. After the rock slice image is obtained, the rock slice image is subject to feature extraction based on three dimensions, i.e., the geometric feature, the mineral feature and the structural feature, the properties of rock are determined based on multiple dimensional features, and finally the identification result comprising a textual description is generated. After a microscopic visual image corresponding to the rock slice is obtained, feature extraction based on multiple dimensions is performed on the image, and the rock slice is identified with reference to multi-dimensional features.

Sc ions are doped into the crystal material, and the Sc ions occupy at least an octahedral site. The effective segregation coefficient of active Ce ions is increased by a radius compensation effect of Sc—Ce ions and adjustment of lattice parameters, thereby the luminescence uniformity of the crystal is increased and the energy resolution is optimized; and at the same time, the potential barrier for Gd ions entering the octahedral site is increased, thereby the probability of the Gd ions entering the octahedral site is reduced, the density of point defects in the crystal is decreased, and the afterglow intensity is reduced. A general formula of the Ce-doped gadolinium-aluminum-gallium garnet structure scintillation crystal is {Gd1-x-y-pScxCeyMep}3[Al1-q]5O12, 0<x?0.1, 0<y<0.02, 0?p?0.
