Abstract
The undoped and Eu-doped LiCl transparent ceramics were synthesized, and their photoluminescence (PL) and optical stimulated luminescence (OSL) properties were evaluated. The PL properties of the undoped sample revealed as emission band due to a defect center. Additionally, the Eu-doped samples exhibited an emission band due to the 5d–4f transitions of Eu2+ ions. The OSL phenomenon was observed only in the Eu-doped samples and was not present in the undoped sample. The OSL spectra of the Eu-doped samples showed as emission band at 430 nm under stimulated at 490 nm, which was due to the 5d–4f transitions of Eu2+ ions. Based on the dose response functions, the lower detection limits of the Eu-doped samples were indicated as 10 mGy (0.1% Eu) and 1 mGy (0.5% and 1.0% Eu), and the 0.5% Eu-doped sample exhibited the highest OSL intensity among the Eu-doped samples.
