Luminescence properties of Sm³⁺in strontium tetraborate for assessment of electron beam dosimetry

Determination of electron radiation dose uncertainty for strontium tetraborate doped with samarium

“…At 850oC, the molded mixtures were sintered for 7 h after being reground and the products were deposited, . The products were cooled down naturally to room temperature very fast after achieving 1 h annealing, then ground directly in an agate mortar (Diab, 2005).…”

“…The properties of thermoluminescent (TL) were adequately explained in previous studies. It was concluded that some grafted polymers can be used in off-line radiation dosimetry measurements (Diab, 2003, 2005, IAEA, 1997b. TL can be used for radiation detection with high accuracy regardless of the size of the detector, such that very small size TL samples were used in case of radiotherapy high spatial resolution measurements.…”

“…High-quality crystals of strontium tetraborate dopped with samarium were studied in previous work to determine its TL response (Diab, 2005). According to the literature (IAEA, 1997b;Nam, Keddy, & Burns, 1987).…”

Radiation defects in SrB4O7:Eu2+ crystals

“…The introduction of rare-earth activators is known to provide a substantial improvement of TSL yield for various materials. It was shown before [10,11] that the activation with Ce and Sm ions is inefficient, while activation with Dy [12,13] or Eu [12,14] provides the TSL yield improved by several times. At the same time, the problems of radiation-induced defect formation in rare-earth activated SBO crystals do not find any sufficient attention in modern literature.…”

Cyclohexane based Bis‐imine and Salicylic Acid Derived Tripodal Amide for Optical Recognition and Enrichment of Sm3+ and Dy3+

“…Interestingly, SmB 6 is recently known to be a topological insulator [23] with potential application in quantum computing. Moreover, Sm 3+ serves as efficient X‐ray storage phosphor having potential application in dosiometry [24] and medical imaging. On the other hand, dysprosium (Dy),found in minerals like xenotime, fergusonite, euxenite etc.…”
