A 0.5% Cr-doped LiTaO3 single crystal was synthesized by the optical floating zone technique, and its scintillation properties were investigated. The X-ray diffraction pattern of the synthesized sample was ascribed to that of LiTaO3. The sample showed a scintillation spectrum peak at around 950 nm. The scintillation intensity of the sample in the near-infrared range linearly increased with the X-ray dose rate from 0.05 to 50 Gy/h.
