Abstract
Translucent ceramics of undoped and Eu-doped NaMgF3 were synthesized by the spark plasma sintering method. Their optical, scintillation, thermally stimulated luminescence (TSL), and optically stimulated luminescence (OSL) properties were examined. In photoluminescence and scintillation spectra, Eu-doped NaMgF3 mainly showed the emission peaks at 360 and 375 nm, ascribed to 4f-4f and 5d-4f transitions of Eu2+, respectively. The TSL glow curve consists of the glow peaks at 94, 132, 166, 203, 249, 316, and 377 °C. The OSL signal could be detected by stimulation at 415 nm. The dominant luminescence center in TSL and OSL processes was Eu2+ ions, showing the emission peaks at 360 and 375 nm. The Eu-doped NaMgF3 had linear TSL and OSL responses from an irradiation dose of 0.01 mGy.
