Abstract
CdMoO4 single crystal was grown successfully by vertical Bridgman method. The as-grown CdMoO4 crystal presents blue-green color due to the existence of oxygen vacancies, while the color will become light even disappeared by annealing in air atmosphere as a result of oxygen introduction. The transmissivity of unannealed and annealed CdMoO4 crystals reached 60% and 78%, respectively. The photoluminescence peak of annealed CdMoO4 is located at 535 nm, and the emission intensity is obviously higher than that of unannealed sample, indicating that the annealing is favorable to improve the photoluminescence intensity. The X-ray excited luminescence of unannealed CdMoO4 crystal is very weak with low signal-noise ratio due to the strong self-absorption phenomena in crystal. For annealed crystal, the X-ray excited luminescence peak is located around 525 nm. The peak deviates about 10 nm wavelength from the peak of photoluminescence spectra due to the much deeper X-ray penetration.
