Abstract

CaB2O4 nanorods doped with different concentrations of Cu were prepared by using co-precipitation method. The recorded Thermoluminescence (TL) and Optically stimulated luminescence (OSL) of CaB2O4:Cu samples for different concentrations of Cu irradiated with 6Gy of X-Ray shows that 0.05 at.wt% of Cu concentrations have higher sensitivity. The TL and OSL kinetic parameters of glow curves were evaluated using "tgcd" and conventional fitting methods. The TL glow curve of the CaB2O4:Cu have three individual glow peaks with maximum peak temperatures at 404.50, 453.04 and 484.02K respectively. The OSL glow curves of the CaB2O4:Cu nanoparticles follow non-first order kinetics which can be fitted with the sum of two first order decay curves.
