Abstract
Through the citrate-assisted sol-gel method, barium gadolinium tungstate (Ba6Y2W3O18) perovskite samples were synthesized, and their luminescence properties were investigated. Through X-ray diffraction (XRD) the crystal structure of the prepared samples was examined. The tunnelling electron microscopy (TEM) analysis has confirmed the agglomeration of the nanoparticles into rods with an average diameter and length of 71 and 214 nm, respectively. The thermoluminescence (TL) properties were investigated by; first, estimating the number of composing TL components using both experimental and computational methods; second, studying the dose-response of the glow curves in response to the irradiated beta dose. The third step in the study of the TL properties was to assess the reusability of the prepared samples in TL dosimetry and the fourth step was to estimate the minimum detectable dose of the phosphor samples. The Computerized Glow Curve Deconvolution (CGCD) method was then used to extract the kinetic parameters of the composing TL peaks.
期刊介绍:
Optical Materials has an open access mirror journal Optical Materials: X, sharing the same aims and scope, editorial team, submission system and rigorous peer review.
The purpose of Optical Materials is to provide a means of communication and technology transfer between researchers who are interested in materials for potential device applications. The journal publishes original papers and review articles on the design, synthesis, characterisation and applications of optical materials.
OPTICAL MATERIALS focuses on:
• Optical Properties of Material Systems;
• The Materials Aspects of Optical Phenomena;
• The Materials Aspects of Devices and Applications.
Authors can submit separate research elements describing their data to Data in Brief and methods to Methods X.
