Usability of Cr-Doped Alumina in Dosimetry
2019
Dosimetry is a widespread material science field dealing with detection and quantification of ionizing radiation using electronic processes in materials. One of the main aspects that determines the performance of dosimeters is the type of defects the material contains. Crystalline lattice imperfections are formed around impurity ions, which may have a smaller or larger size, or different oxidation states compared to host ions. In this study, we show what effects Cr impurities have on the luminescent properties of alumina. Porous Al 2 O 3 : Cr microceramics synthesized using the sol-gel method showed a higher thermoluminescence response than a single crystal ruby. We have found that Cr 2 O 3…
Detection of Irradiated Food and Evaluation of the Given Dose by Electron Spin Resonance, Thermoluminescence, and Gas Chromatographic/Mass Spectromet…
2018
Abstract The treatment of food with ionizing radiation, at doses lower than 10 kGy, is a preservation technology, which can be used to reduce food spoilage due to microorganisms and to decrease insect infestation, enhancing, in the same time, the hygienic quality, extending the shelf life of food itself. In order to increase the general consumer acceptance and accordingly to facilitate the commercialization and trade of irradiated food, the European Committee for Standardization (CEN) validated reliable analytical techniques to identify irradiated foodstuffs for legal control purposes, distinguished in Chemical, Physical, and Microbiological ones, depending on the characteristics of marker …
High-dose behaviour of CaSO4: Dy thermoluminescent phosphors as deduced by a continuous model for trap depths
1978
Abstract The high-dose behaviour of CaSO4: Dy TL dosimeters observed by some authors is compared with the one deduced by the continuous distribution of trap depths previously proposed by us. A general agreement results.
Thermoluminescence study of irradiated lithium orthosilicate
1998
Abstract The thermoluminescental investigations of neutron and gamma irradiated lithium orthosilicate pellets were carried out. It has been shown that the addition of Cr 3+ and Fe 3+ ions with the total concentration up to 2.0 wt.% during preparation of lithium orthosilicate pellets, significantly reduces the formation of radiation defects in irradiated matrix. This phenomena can be explained by the reducing of the formation of primary radiation defects during irradiation due to stimulating the recombination processes by the ions of impurities. Several ion concentration combinations were studied. The thermoluminescental investigations of fast neutron irradiated lithium orthosilicate pellets…
UV light induced luminescence processes in AlN nanotips and ceramics
2005
UV induced luminescence properties of AlN (Eg = 6.2 eV) have been studied for AlN nanotips and AlN ceramics, using methods of photoluminescence, optically stimulated luminescence and thermoluminescence. In both types of objects the main luminescence band, which appears in prompt and stimulated emission spectra around 400 nm, arises due to presence of oxygen-related defects. The main difference between AlN nanotips and AlN ceramics is observed in excitation spectra and TL properties. Basing on the experimental results it is assumed that several different energy transfer mechanisms occur in AlN. (© 2005 WILEY-VCH Verlag GmbH & Co. KGaA, Weinheim)
Effect of Ce3+ concentration on persistent luminescence of YAGG:Ce3+,Cr3+,Nd3+ nanophosphors obtained by the co-precipitation method
2020
Abstract Synthesis of Y3Al2Ga3O12 garnet (YAGG) nanophosphors co-doped with Ce3+, Cr3+, and Nd3+ ions by co-precipitation is reported. The effect of Ce3+ concentration on the structure of garnet and on optical properties including persistent luminescence was investigated. The X-ray diffraction measurements showed that single garnet phase was obtained. The contraction of the crystallites size was observed with increasing the cerium concentration. The combined emission of three used co-dopants together allows to extend persistent luminescence spectral range. The photoluminescence, excitation and persistent luminescence spectra were collected and the optimal Ce3+ concentration for the highest …
Luminescence properties of wurtzite AlN nanotips
2006
The optical properties of aluminum nitride nanotips (AlNNTs) synthesized via vapor transport and condensation process have been studied by cathodoluminescence, photoluminescence (PL), thermoluminescence (TL), and UV absorption measurements. Two defect related transitions around 2.1 and 3.4eV and an excitonic feature at 6.2eV were identified. Compared to the AlN macropowders, the AlNNTs showed a blueshift (+0.2eV) of the ∼3.2eV peak. Analysis of both PL and TL excitation measurements indicated the existence of subband gap multiple energy levels in AlNNTs. A significant TL intensity even at 145°C suggests possible ultraviolet detector and dosimetric applications of these AlNNTs.
