Eu3+-activated B2O3-GeO2-37Gd2O3-3Eu2O3-(15-x)GdF3-xBaF2 (0≤x≤15) scintillating glasses with the density of 6.1-6.3 g/cm3 were synthesized by a melt-quenching method.

The substitution of BaF2 for expensive GdF3 in oxyfluoride borogermanate glasses slightly decreased the glass density within 3.0%. Their optical properties were characterized by transmittance, photolumines- cence (excitation and emission), and X-ray excited luminescence (XEL) spectra in detail. The emission intensity of Eu3+ ions increased with the elevated x values. The Eu-O covalancey nature and the local environment of Eu3+ ions were evaluated by Judd-Ofelt results. It was found that the covalency property of Eu-O bond increased with increasing x values.展开更多
