Abstract

The goals of this work are to determine the luminescence properties of KYF4 single crystals doped with different concentrations of Ce3+ ions and to evaluate their possible application as a detector of beta radiation. In particular, thermoluminiscence, radioluminiscence and optically stimulated luminescence properties of KYF4: Ce3+ exposed to beta radiation have been studied and very good dosimetric properties have been obtained within the dose range 0.02–20 Gy.
