Subject classification: 78.60.Kn; S10.15The thermoluminescent properties of polycrystalline Dy doped strontium tetraborate are reported. Its efficiency is at least five times larger than that of TLD-700 and therefore comparable to that of Cu doped lithium tetraborate. The isometric plot shows two spectral bands at approximately 480 and 580 nm like the emission spectra of Dy doped phosphors reported to date.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
