Abstract:
Photoluminescence (PL) and Thermoluminescence (TL) properties of Cerium (Ce3+)
and Terbium (Tb3+) singly doped and multidoped monocalcium aluminate phosphors
are studied. The suitability of monocalcium aluminate material as a luminescent host
is analyzed. The nature of trap centers and the possibility of energy transfer between
the dopant ions are discussed. The suitability of the material for radiation dosimetry
application is also studied
