Investigation On Ce3+ Doped Barium Tin Boro-Phosphate Glass for White LED And Nuclear Radiation Shielding Applications

Abstract

The Ce3+ Doped Barium Tin Boro-phosphate glass was produced according to earlier research, melt quenching method. The amorphous nature of Ce3+ Doped Barium Tin Boro-phosphate glass was verified by powder X-ray diffraction investigation. The Ce3+ Doped Barium Tin Boro-phosphate glass's functional groups were determined using Fourier transform-RAMAN and Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy. Using Ultraviolet-Visible spectroscopy, the linear optical properties of the Ce3+ Doped Barium Tin Boro-phosphate glass were examined. These properties included its optical band gap, extinction coefficient, optical conductivity, and refractive index. Using EDAX and SEM analyses, the chemical compositions and surface morphology of the Ce3+ Doped Barium Tin Boro-phosphate glass were examined. Ce3+ doped barium tin Boro-phosphate glass was studied in terms of its excitation and emission spectra using the photoluminescence technique. The glass's CIE coordinates were also looked at. Additionally, the mass attenuation coefficient, half-value layer, mean free path, tenth value layer, and EABF were studied concerning the glass's gamma-ray shielding qualities using the Phy-X software.
