Abstract
LiMgPO4:Tb,Sm,B is a promising material for dosimetry applications, particularly in optically stimulated luminescence (OSL). This study aimed to explore residual thermoluminescence (R-TL) glow curves after different light bleaching times to establish a connection between TL traps and OSL components for the first time. The OSL decay curves and R-TL glow curve intensities were analyzed using exponential decay functions to account for optical decay, enabling identification of the OSL components and bleaching decay rates of each TL peak. A correlation between the decay rates of OSL components and bleaching decay rates of TL peaks, as well as the relationship between increased OSL intensity and decreased TL intensity were studied for different irradiation doses. Various bleaching models were evaluated to determine the most appropriate one for LiMgPO4:Tb,Sm,B. A non-thermally sensitive deep electron trap is proposed to enhance the understanding of the luminescence mechanism in LiMgPO4:Tb,Sm,B.
期刊介绍:
Radiation Physics and Chemistry is a multidisciplinary journal that provides a medium for publication of substantial and original papers, reviews, and short communications which focus on research and developments involving ionizing radiation in radiation physics, radiation chemistry and radiation processing.
The journal aims to publish papers with significance to an international audience, containing substantial novelty and scientific impact. The Editors reserve the rights to reject, with or without external review, papers that do not meet these criteria. This could include papers that are very similar to previous publications, only with changed target substrates, employed materials, analyzed sites and experimental methods, report results without presenting new insights and/or hypothesis testing, or do not focus on the radiation effects.
