Abstract

We measured time-resolved spectra and emission decay times under pulsed X-ray and synchrotron excitation in alkali-earth fluorides doped with Pr3+ ions. Two fast decay components were found in the emission spectra of BaF2-Pr3+ and SrF2-Pr3+ . These were 4 ns and 21 ns in BaF2-Pr3+ and 8 and 24 ns in SrF2-Pr3+. The intensity of the faster components 4 ns and 8 ns depended on concentration of Pr3+. Thus, the presence of aggregates might be the cause of such faster components.
