Luminescent properties of Na-codoped Lu2SiO5:Ce phosphor

The mechanism of enhanced luminescence in ion-codoped Lu2SiO5:Ce3+ phosphors

“…Recently, more and more attention has been paid to improve its scintillation properties. Ion codoping is an effective technique to ameliorate the properties of LSO:Ce [2][3][4][5][6][7]. It was reported that Ca or Mg codoping could enhance the light yield, shorten the decay time and suppress the afterglow for LSO:Ce crystals [2,3].…”

“…It was reported that Ca or Mg codoping could enhance the light yield, shorten the decay time and suppress the afterglow for LSO:Ce crystals [2,3]. Na or Li codoping also resulted in an enhanced luminescence for LSO:Ce phosphors [4,5]. The light yield and energy resolution of LSO crystals were significantly affected by La or Sc codoping [6].…”

Growth and characterization of tetragonal structure modification of β-Gd2Si2O7:Ce

“…Search for new materials with improved scintillation characteristics is of big importance. Cerium-doped lutetium scandium orthoborate (Lu 1−x Sc x )BO 3 [2], gadolinium silicate Gd 9.33 (SiO 4 ) 6 O 2 (GSAP:Ce) [3], Ce, Na-codoped lutetium silicate Lu 2 SiO 5 [4] are the recent examples of new scintillation materials based on complex oxides. Ce-doped rare earth pyrosilicates (disilicates) RE 2 Si 2 O 7 are among the most promising new scintillators.…”

Luminescence characteristics of Lu0.8Sc0.2BO3:RE3+ (RE=Eu, Tb) polycrystalline powders

“…high density, high light output, fast response time) and chemical stability. Hence, many researchers are devoting to improving or optimizing the existing scintillation crystals [1][2][3][4][5], and also developing new scintillators such as Y 2 Si 2 O 7 :Ce, Gd 2 Si 2 O 7 :Ce, Lu 2 Si 2 O 7 , MgWO 4 and so on [6][7][8][9][10]. Nevertheless, there are still many novel crystals deserved to be developed.…”
