摘要：

It is shown that X-ray-irradiated Eu-doped CsBr (CsBr:Eu) exhibits intense photostimulated luminescence (PSL). The peak wavelengths of PSL emission and stimulation spectra of CsBr:Eu phosphor ceramic samples are 450 and 690nm, respectively. The dependence of PSL properties on preparing conditions of phosphor ceramic samples, such as Eu concentration, sintering temperature and sintering time, is studied. It is found that the PSL intensity of CsBr:Eu phosphor ceramics fabricated under optimum preparation condition is higher than that of commercially available imaging plates (IP) using BaFBr:Eu and BaFI:Eu. The image quality of the IP using CsBr:Eu phosphor film is better than that of commercially available IP. (C) 2007 Elsevier B.V. All rights reserved.
