Abstract

Doubly activated alkaline-earth phosphors are known to present luminescent and charge-storage properties. In this work, we investigate the photoluminescence (PL) and the optically stimulated luminescence (OSL) of the SrS:Ce,Sm phosphor by means of time-resolved spectroscopy with excitation laser pulses of 2ps duration. By comparing the PL measurements obtained with direct UV excitation and the OSL experiments performed using infrared wavelength, it was possible to measure a charge conversion lifetime of about 2.5±1ns. A luminescence lifetime of 36±1ns has also been found. These measurements are presented and discussed in connection with applications where the speed of the SrS:Ce,Sm luminescence is a crucial parameter.
