Abstract

In this study, Ag2O–Cs2O–SrO–Al2O3–P2O5 glasses with different Ag concentrations (0, 0.1, 0.3, 1.0, and 3.0 mol.%) were made by the melt-quenching method. In addition, the photoluminescence (PL) properties, the radio-photoluminescence (RPL) phenomenon, and spatial resolution on the X-ray imaging by the RPL were studied. The RPL was observed by irradiating with X-rays as an appearance of a new PL emission at around 590 nm. According to the shape of the PL spectrum and lifetime, the luminescence was confirmed to be due to Ag2+ with a lifetime constant of 14.7–45.5 ns. From the X-ray imaging resolution test, the 3.0% Ag-doped sample showed a spatial resolution of at least 10.0 LP/mm.
