Abstract
Sm3+-doped gadolinium calcium phosphate oxyfluoride glasses have been synthesized and investigated their optical, photo and radioluminescence properties. The glasses were prepared by melt quenching technique at 1400°C. The characteristic absorption bands of Sm3+ ions originating from the 6H5/2 ground state and occurring absorbed photon in visible light (VIS) and near-infrared (NIR) region with clearly observed from absorption spectra. From the photoluminescence (PL), the glasses showed the emission at 561 (4G5/2→6H5/2), 598 (4G5/2→6H7/2), 644 (4G5/2→6H9/2) and 705nm (4G5/2→6H11/2). The radioluminescence (RL), emission spectra were corresponding to those from PL measurements. From RL measurement, the integral scintillation efficiency of developed glass was determined at 43% when compared with BGO crystal.
