Abstract

We fabricated BaCaBO3F (BCBF) with various Dy concentrations (0.1 %, 1 %, and 5 %), and evaluated the luminescence properties for radiation dosimetry. Sharp scintillation peaks originating from the 4f → 4f transition of Dy3+ were observed. Furthermore, thermally stimulated luminescence (TSL) glow curves were recorded, and a TSL glow peak at approximately 120 °C was observed. The 0.1 % Dy-doped BCBF exhibited the highest TSL intensity, and dose response curves of the 0.1–1 % Dy-doped BCBF were obtained in the 0.1–10000 mGy range. Moreover, at least seven activation energy levels related to TSL were confirmed by the TSL isothermal decay analysis.
