Abstract

Different samples of calcium sulphide (CaS):CaS(Sm) and CaS(Sm,Ce) phosphors have been prepared. To study the phosphorescence decay systematically, the samples were excited to a saturation using 259 nm line of xenon lamp and phosphorescence emission was monitored for a wavelength 569 nm of samarium. The trap depth has been evaluated by analyzing the decay curves. The observed decay could be explained satisfactorily by assuming a superposition scheme. The thermoluminescence properties of the doped CaS phosphors are also investigated in detail by computerized deconvolution technique of the glow curves obtained by UV irradiation.
