The structure and luminescence properties of the samples were characterized by X-ray powder diffraction (XRD), photoluminescence (PL) spectra, decay curves, thermoluminescence (TL) glow curves as well as the photostimu- lated luminescence (PSL) spectra. Sr2A12SiO7:Eu2+,Tm3+ phosphors exhibited strong green phosphorescence and photostimulated lu- minescence originating from 4f65d1-4f7 transition of Eu2+ after ultraviolet light stimulation. Deep traps were found by analyses on the phosphorescence decays and thermoluminescence spectra. It was also found that with increasing the time interval between UV excita- tion turn-off and stimulation turn-on, the photostimulated luminescence became stronger. This phenomenon resulted from the fact that the captured electron was retrapped by the deep traps. Compared with the Tm3+-free sample, it was found that the PSL intensity was strongly enhanced in Tm3+ eodoping samples.展开更多
