摘要
Photoluminescence (PL), photo-stimulated luminescence (PSL), and thermoluminescence (TL) properties of a Ce-doped CaB2O4 crystal were studied. The Ce-doped crystal was prepared by the simple solidification method using a Pt crucible under nitrogen atmosphere. A PL emission band in the 350-370 nm wavelength range was obtained under excitation at 325 nm owing to the 5d (t(2g))-4f (F-2(5/2), F-2(7/2))-allowed transition of the Ce3+ emission center. The fluorescence quantum efficiency and the decay time of Ce3+ were estimated to be about 70% and 29 ns, respectively. The 5d-4f emission band of Ce3+ also appeared in the 350-370 nm wavelength range in the TL. and PSL spectra. Good linear TL and PSL responses were observed in the 1-1000 mGy and 1-10,000 mGy X-ray dose range, respectively. (C) 2014 Elsevier B.V. All rights reserved.
