All the samples were synthesized by high-temperature combustion method. The X-ray diffraction (XRD) and Fourier transform infrared (FTIR) spectroscopy characterization confirms the formation of pure α-phase with crystallized in orthorhombic structure of samples. The PL emission spectra of all samples exhibit characteristic green emission peaks of Tb^3+ where the peak at 545 nm has the highest emission intensity for Tb^3+ con- centration of 5.0 mol%. The TL glow curves of β-irradiated Tb^3+-doped α-Sr2P2O7 phosphors were recorded at different heating rates of 2, 4, and 6 K.s^-1. TL curves of all sample exhibit combination of two peaks: peak at 420 K shifts toward higher 525 K remains unaffected temperature, while peak at with the increase in Tb^3+ concentration as well as fading effect. The activation energy and kinetic parameters of the samples were evaluated using thermoluminescence peak shape method.展开更多

The whitlockite-like crystal structure of Ca9Lu(PO4)7 when doped with several ions (Yb3+, EU3+ and Pr3+) at different concentrations (1 tool.%, 5 mol.% and 10 tool.%) was studied, by means of synchrotron X-ra...The whitlockite-like crystal structure of Ca9Lu(PO4)7 when doped with several ions (Yb3+, EU3+ and Pr3+) at different concentrations (1 tool.%, 5 mol.% and 10 tool.%) was studied, by means of synchrotron X-ray diffraction. In particular for Eu3+ and Pr3+, the presence of the dopant ion significantly changed the occupation factors (OFs) of the Ca2+ and Lu3+ cations and gave rise to a distortion of the metal-oxygen polyhedra. The observed structural features clearly showed significant impact of the dopant ion on the crystal structure of the host.展开更多
