Abstract

A new Cu,P-doped, sodium fluorosilicate-based optically stimulated luminescence (OSL) phosphor is developed. This phosphor shows good OSL properties, and the sensitivity is comparable with that of the commercial Al(2)O(3):C (Landauer, Inc.) phosphor. For the luminescence averaged over initial 1 s, blue-stimulated luminescence and green-stimulated luminescence sensitivities were found to be 0.76 and 3.8 times, respectively, of Al(2)O(3):C (Landauer, Inc.) with 28 % of post-irradiation fading in 3 days and nil thereafter. The simple preparation procedure, fast decay, very good sensitivity and moderate fading will make this phosphor suitable for radiation dosimetry, using OSL.
