Abstract
Ca3Y2B4O12 (CBYO) phosphor was synthesized using a gel combustion method. X-ray diffraction (XRD) measurement confirmed a single-phase structure (space group Pnma (62)) of synthesized compound. TL measurements were conducted between room temperature (RT) and 450 °C at a heating rate of 2 °Cs−1. Significant glow peaks were observed at 64, 116, and 242 °C in CYBO phosphor sample exposed to different beta doses. In the range of 0.1–100 Gy, the TL intensity of the glow peak displayed good linearity. Different methods were employed to determine the number of peaks, the trap structure, and the kinetic parameters of the thermoluminescence glow curve of CBYO; the Hoogenstraaten method, various heating rates (VHR), and glow curve deconvolution method (CGCD) implemented through tgcd:An R package. Currently available findings confirm that CYBO host is a promising candidate for environmental studies because one exhibits adequate TL dose response coupled with a good sensitivity and linearity.
