Beta irradiation-induced thermoluminescence: Glow curve analysis and kinetic parameters in combustion-synthesized undoped Ca4YO(BO3)3
(Pergamon-Elsevier Science Ltd, 2024) Madkhli, A. Y.; Jabali, D. A.; Souadi, G.; Sonsuz, M.; Kaynar, U. H.; Akca-Ozalp, S.; Ayvacikli, M.
This study examines the thermoluminescent (TL) properties of undoped Ca4YO(BO3)3 phosphor, focusing on how it behaves under a variety of experimental conditions. The IRSL-TL 565 nm was chosen as the appropriate detection filter among various optical detection filter combinations. During the preheating trials conducted at a rate of 2 degrees C/s, the TL peak exhibited increased intensity, particularly around 200 degrees C. The experimental outcomes demonstrated a reliable linear relationship (R2 = 0.996 and b = 1.015) in the dose response of undoped preheated Ca4YO(BO3)3 within the range of 1-200 Gy. The investigation encompasses a range of techniques, including the TM-Tstop method, computerized glow curve deconvolution (CGCD) analysis, and theoretical modelling. The application of the TM-Tstop method to samples irradiated with a 5 Gy dose revealed distinct zones on the TM versus Tstop diagram, signifying the presence of at least two discernible components within the TL glow curve, specifically, a single general order kinetics peak and a continuous distribution. The analysis of activation energy versus preheated temperature exhibited a stepwise curve, indicating five trap levels with depths ranging between 1.13 eV and 1.40 eV. The CGCD method also revealed the superposition of at least five distinct TL glow peaks. It was observed that their activation energies were consistent with the Tm-Tstop experiment. Furthermore, the low Figure of Merit (FOM) value of 1.18% indicates high reliability in the goodness-of-fit measure. These findings affirm the reliability and effectiveness of the employed methods in characterizing the TL properties of the Ca4YO(BO3)3 phosphor under investigation. Theoretical models, including the semi-localized transition model, were introduced to explain anomalous observations in TL glow peak intensities and heating rate patterns. While providing a conceptual framework, these models may require adjustments to accurately capture the specific characteristics uncovered through CGCD analysis. As a potential application, the study suggests that the characterized TL properties of Ca4YO(BO3)3 phosphor could be utilized in dosimetric applications, such as radiation dose measurements, owing to its reliable linear response within a broad dose range.
Beta-irradiated ZnGa2O4:Sm3+phosphor: Thermoluminescence glow curves and kinetic parameters via gel combustion synthesis
(Elsevier Science Sa, 2024) Barad, A.; Topaksu, M.; Hakami, J.; Kaynar, U. H.; Akca-Ozalp, S.; Altowyan, Abeer S.; Aydin, H.
This study examines the X-ray Diffraction (XRD) characteristics of Sm 3+-doped ZnGa 2 O 4 phosphor, shedding light on its structural characteristics. The XRD data reveal distinctive peaks that represent the crystal 's lattice structure. This provides the basis for a more detailed analysis of thermoluminescence (TL). Initially, the TL glow curves corresponding to different concentrations of Sm were analysed, leading to the identification of the most favorable Sm concentration. Subsequently, an investigation was conducted into the TL behavior of the material in response to varying doses within a broad spectrum of beta radiation, revealing a linear characteristic (b=1.075) across doses ranging from 0.1 Gy to 50 Gy. Following this, a reusability assessment was executed over three measurement sets, wherein it was ascertained that the deviation in peak area across ten cycles did not surpass 2 %. Furthermore, it was investigated how different heating rates ranging from 0.5 degrees C/s to 7 degrees C/s affect the TL curve of the material. To determine the TL trap parameters of the sample, Initial Rise (IR) and Computerized Glow Curve Deconvolution (CGCD) methods were employed. A consistent pattern of activation energy values was observed in both IR in the T M-T stop experiment and CGCD analyses, indicating a uniform response to distinct energy levels within the sample. In terms of providing valuable insights into the characteristics of TL, these methods were found to be very effective. This contributed to a comprehensive understanding of charge carrier dynamics within the crystal lattice. Moreover, Peaks I, II, and III showed a linear response to applied doses, indicating the material 's potential for dosimetry applications. The findings of this study not only provide insights into Sm 3+-doped ZnGd 2 O 4 phosphors ' TL properties, but also enhance our understanding of how to optimize their radiation response.

(Pergamon-Elsevier Science Ltd, 2023) Madkhli, A. Y.; Kaynar, U. H.; Coban, M. B.; Ayvacikli, M.; Canimoglu, A.; Can, N.
In this study, the combustion method assisted by urea that is ideally suited to economic and time saving was used for the synthesizing of reddish orange emitting YAl3(BO3)4 phosphor samples doped with various Sm3+ ions (from 0.01 wt% to 7wt%). A detailed study of the structural and luminescence properties at room/low tem-perature of the synthesized samples was performed. XRD analysis revealed a rhombohedral structure with an R32 space group (155). The particle size was determined by the Scherrer's method to be 48 nm. The visible PL emission spectra upon excitation at 359 nm are recorded and four emission peaks around 564, 599, 646, and 707 nm with transitions 4G5/2 -> 6H5/2, 4G5/2 -> 6H7/2, 4G5/2 -> 6H9/2 and 4G5/2 -> 6H11/2 are observed. Concentration quenching was mainly caused by dipole-dipole interactions between neighbouring trivalent Sm3+ ions. Through the CIE chroma coordinates (0.606, 0.382), the optimized sample (x = 0.03) demonstrates admirable luminous performance. YAl3(BO3)4:Sm3+ can be a good candidate for use as a red component for lighting applications.
Enhancement of luminescence and thermal stability in Eu3+-doped K3Y (BO2)6 with Li+ and Na+ co-doping
(Elsevier, 2024) Kaynar, U. H.; Aydin, H.; Altowyan, A. S.; Hakami, J.; Coban, M. B.; Ayvacikli, M.; Karali, E. Ekdal
Eu3+-doped and Li+/Na+ co-doped K3Y(BO2)6 (KYBO) phosphors were synthesized through a microwave- assisted sol-gel method, and their structural and photoluminescent (PL) characteristics were examined. X-ray diffraction (XRD) and Rietveld refinement confirm effective dopant incorporation and preservation of the crystalline structure. Fourier Transform Infrared (FTIR) spectroscopy indicates the maintenance of the borate structure, confirming the structural integrity of the phosphors upon doping. The addition of Li+ and Na+ co-dopants notably enhances luminescent efficiency and thermal stability, making these phosphors promising candidates for solid-state lighting (SSL) applications. PL analysis reveals strong red emission peaks at 612 nm, attributed to the 5 D o ? 7 F 2 transition of Eu3+ ions. The study indicates that electric dipole-quadrupole interactions are the primary mechanism for energy migration, with a critical distance of approximately 22.68 & Aring;. This mechanism contributes to concentration quenching at higher doping levels. High temperature PL measurements indicated an activation energy of 0.1389 eV for thermal quenching in the Li+ co-doped sample. Additionally, the Na+ co-doped sample exhibited an abnormal thermal stability behavior, with an even higher activation energy of 0.2536 eV. This suggests that Na+ co-doping significantly enhances the thermal resilience of the phosphor, making it more suitable for high-power light-emitting applications that operate under extreme conditions. CIE chromaticity diagrams highlight the potential for optimizing Eu3+ doping levels, combined with Li+ and Na+ co-doping, to improve luminescent performance and thermal stability for advanced SSL applications.

High temperature photoluminescence dependence and energy migration of Tb3+-Incorporated K3Y(BO2)6 phosphors
(Pergamon-Elsevier Science Ltd, 2024) Souadi, G.; Hakami, O.; Kaynar, U. H.; Coban, M. B.; Aydin, H.; Madkhali, O.; Zelai, T.
This study investigates the structural and photoluminescence (PL) characteristics of Tb3+-incorporated K3Y(BO2)(6) (KYBO) phosphors synthesized via a microwave-assisted sol-gel technique. X-ray diffraction (XRD) and Rietveld refinement confirmed the formation of a pure hexagonal phase, with lattice expansion due to Tb3+ doping. PL studies revealed strong green emissions centered at 541 nm, attributed to the D-5(4) -> F-7(5) transitions of Tb3+ ions, with the highest intensity observed at 5 wt% Tb3+. A decrease in emission was observed at higher concentrations due to concentration quenching. Temperature-dependent PL measurements revealed reverse thermal quenching enhancing PL intensity. Chromaticity analysis based on CIE 1931 coordinates showed stable green emission across all concentrations, with a maximum color purity of 89.74% observed for the KYBO:3 wt% Tb3+ sample. The results, along with reverse thermal quenching behavior observed between 470K and 550K, suggest that these phosphors exhibit excellent potential for lighting and display technologies.
Integrating K plus into Eu and Tb doped GdCa 4O(BO3)3: A dual study on photoluminescence and structure
(Elsevier Science Sa, 2024) Altowyan, Abeer S.; Kaynar, U. H.; Hakami, Jabir; Coban, M. B.; Ayvacikli, M.; Aydin, H.; Canimoglu, A.
In this study, we investigate the structural and photoluminescence (PL) properties of rare -earth -doped GdCa 4 O (BO 3 ) 3 (GdCOB) phosphors, specifically focusing on the spectral behaviour induced by doping with Eu 3 + and Tb 3 + ions. The powder X-ray diffraction (XRD) spectra confirm the formation of a monoclinic phase. The XRD data were also refined by a Rietveld refinement method. The existence of B, O, Ca, Gd, Tb, Eu and K elements was verified by EDS spectra. We introduce a detailed examination of the charge compensation process using Kro ger- Vink notation to clarify the mechanisms essential for tailoring the optical properties of the phosphors. The PL excitation spectrum of GdCOB:Eu 3 + , monitored at 611 nm, reveals sharp excitation peaks at 319, 361, 380, and 392 nm, corresponding to 7 F 0 -> 5 H 3 , 7 F 0 -> 5 D 4 , 7 F 0 -> 7 F 0 , and 7 F 0 -> 5 L 6 transitions, respectively. The PL spectrum under excitation of 392 nm exhibits that phosphors doped with Eu 3 + a significant red emission at 611 nm, which is attributed to the 5 D 0 -> 7 F 2 transition. This emission intensity is particularly enhanced at non-centrosymmetric sites of the Eu 3 + ions. Similarly, the PL excitation spectrum of GdCOB:Tb 3 + , monitored at 552 nm, displays distinct excitation peaks at 316, 341, 353, and 379 nm, which correspond to the transitions 7 F 6 -> 5 D 0, 7 F 6 -> 5 L 7, 7 F 6 -> 5 D 2, and 7 F 6 -> 5 D 3, respectively. Tb 3 +-doped phosphors display a bright green emission, with a dominant peak at 552 nm, resulting from the 5 D 4 -> 7 F 5 transition. Additionally, the introduction of K + ions as co-dopants results in modifications to the local environments of Eu 3 + and Tb 3 + ions. These changes allow for fine-tuning of the emission peaks, significantly enhancing the luminescent output of the phosphors. Optimal doping concentrations of 5 mol% for Eu 3 + and 1 mol% for Tb 3 + enhance luminescent intensity and prevent concentration quenching. This phenomenon, often resulting in reduced PL intensity at higher dopant levels, is primarily due to dipole -dipole interactions, consistent with Dexter's theory of energy transfer. Strategic modulation of doping concentrations, coupled with a deep understanding of energy transfer mechanisms are critical for the development of advanced luminescent materials Our analysis of the Commission de l ' Eclairage (CIE) chromaticity coordinates reveals enhanced energy transfer dynamics in rare -earth -doped borates, facilitating the tuning of luminescent properties. These results not only deepen our understanding of the fundamental physics governing such phosphors but also open pathways for the development of optoelectronic applications requiring consistent color output, such as LED technologies and solid-state lighting.
Novel Dy incorporated Ca3Y2B4O12 phosphor: Insights into the structure, broadband emission, photoluminescence and cathodoluminescence characteristics
(Pergamon-Elsevier Science Ltd, 2022) Qaisi, Aziza H.; Kaynar, U. H.; Ayvacikli, M.; Garcia-Guinea, J.; Alajlani, Y.; Topaksu, M.; Can, N.
This study reports cathodoluminescence (CL) and photoluminescence (PL) properties of undoped borate Ca3Y2B4O12 and Ca3Y2B4O12:x Dy3+ (x = 0.5, 1, 2, 3, 5, and 7) synthesized by gel combustion method. Micro-X-Ray diffraction (XRD), Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy (FTIR), CL and PL under electron beam and 359 nm pulse laser excitation, respectively were used to investigate characterization and luminescence studies of synthesized samples in the visible wavelength. As-prepared samples match the standard Ca3Y2BO4 phase that belongs to the orthorhombic system with space group Pnma (62) based on XRD results. Under electron beam excitation, this borate host shows a broad band emission from about 250 to 450 nm, peaked at 370 nm which is attributed to NBHOC. All as-prepared phosphors exhibited the characteristic PL and CL emissions of Dy3+ ions corresponding to F-4(9/2)-> H-6(J) transitions when excited with laser at 359 nm. The CL emission spectra of phosphors were identical to those of the PL spectra. Concentration quenching occurred when the doping concentration was 1 mol% in both the CL and PL spectra. The underlying reason for the concentration quenching phenomena observed in the discrete orange-yellow emission peaked at 574 nm of Dy3+ ion-doped Ca3Y2B4O12 phosphor is also discussed. According to these data, we can infer that this new borate can be used as a yellow emitting phosphor in solid-state illumination.
Novel Tb3+-Doped LaAl2 B4 O10 phosphors: Structural analysis, luminescent properties, and energy transfer mechanism
(Pergamon-Elsevier Science Ltd, 2024) Kaynar, U. H.; Aydin, H.; Hakami, Jabir; Altowyan, Abeer S.; Coban, M. B.; Ayvacikli, M.; Canimoglu, A.
This study explores the structural and luminescent properties of terbium (Tb3+)-doped lanthanum aluminium borate (LaAl2B4O,0, abbreviated as LAB) phosphors, a novel host lattice for Tb3+ doping. LAB:Tb3+ phosphors, with varying dopant concentrations, were synthesized using a microwave-assisted combustion synthesis approach and characterized using X-ray diffraction (XRD), Rietveld refinement, and photoluminescence spectroscopy at both room and low temperatures. The structural analysis confirmed the hexagonal crystal structure of LAB and revealed successful incorporation of Tb3+ ions without altering the fundamental lattice. Luminescence studies demonstrated that the LAB:Tb3+ phosphors show strong green emission primarily attributed to the 5D4 -> 7F5 transition of Tb3+. The optimal doping concentration was determined to be 5 wt% Tb3+, which provided maximum luminescence efficiency. This concentration also allowed for a critical study of energy transfer mechanisms within the phosphor, revealing dipole-dipole interactions with a critical distance of 9.80 & Aring; between Tb3+ ions. Additionally, the CIE chromaticity coordinates of LAB:0.05 Tb3+ were precisely determined to be (0.289, 0.4460), indicating the potential for high-quality green emission suitable for solid-state lighting and display technologies. This work not only demonstrates the potential of LAB:Tb3+ as a highly efficient green luminescent material, but also sheds light on the mechanisms responsible for energy transfer and concentration quenching.

(Elsevier, 2025) Hakami, Jabir; Kaynar, U. H.; Coban, M. B.; Aydin, H.; Alamri, R.; Jabali, D. A.; Can, N.
Despite significant advancements in borate-based phosphors, improving luminescent efficiency and thermal stability, particularly at high temperatures, remains a persistent challenge. In this study, Dy3+-doped LaMgB5O10 (LMBO) phosphors were synthesized and characterized for their photoluminescent properties to address these issues. Under 344 nm excitation, the Dy3+-activated LMBO phosphors exhibited strong luminescence with characteristic peaks at 482 nm (blue), 578 nm (yellow), and 663 nm (red), corresponding to specific Dy3+ transitions. Optimal luminescence was achieved at a doping level of 2 wt% Dy3+, beyond which quenching effects reduced emission intensity. The critical quenching distance (Rc) was estimated at 24.66 & Aring;, indicating predominant non-radiative energy transfer. Moreover, thermal quenching was reduced, with the activation energy for thermal quenching determined to be 0.1975 eV, demonstrating that the material can maintain reasonable luminescence efficiency at elevated temperatures. Time-resolved photoluminescence spectroscopy revealed multi-exponential decay behavior, indicating the presence of multiple decay processes. The average luminescence lifetimes were calculated as 632 mu s for the 2 wt% Dy3+ sample and 539 mu s for the 3 wt% Dy3+ sample, with a clear concentration quenching effect observed at higher dopant levels. Colorimetric analysis in the CIE 1931 color space revealed a shift toward yellow with increasing Dy3+ concentration, achieving a correlated color temperature (CCT) of 6595 K at 2 wt% Dy3+. This shift supports the material's potential for photonic and lighting applications. These findings highlight a significant advancement in addressing the thermal stability issue in phosphor materials, making Dy3+-doped LMBO phosphors promising candidates for advanced photonic technologies.

(Elsevier Science Sa, 2025) Souadi, G.; Madkhli, A. Y.; Kaynar, U. H.; Gok, C.; Aydin, H.; Coban, M. B.; Kaynar, S. Cam
In this study, Tb3+-doped K3Gd(BO2)6 phosphors were synthesized using the microwave-assisted sol-gel method to explore their photoluminescence (PL) properties and thermal stability. XRD and Rietveld refinement confirmed the incorporation of Tb3+ions, without secondary phases. PL analysis revealed a strong green emission near 542 nm, attributed to the 5 D 4 -> 7 F 5 transition of Tb3+ions. An optimal Tb3+concentration of 3 wt% was identified, beyond which concentration quenching significantly reduced luminescence intensity. Radiative energy transfer, occurring via reabsorption, was observed at lower concentrations, facilitating efficient energy migration. Conversely, at higher concentrations, non-radiative processes such as cross-relaxation dominated. Remarkably, negative thermal quenching (NTQ) was observed up to 470 K, with an activation energy of 0.96 eV. Additionally, Na+ co- doping introduced lattice distortions that enhanced energy transfer between Tb3+ions and improved luminescence efficiency. The chromaticity diagram highlighted a shift towards the yellow-green region with increasing the Tb3+concentration, demonstrating tunable emission properties for solid-state lighting applications.
Samarium doped Ca(3)Y2B(4)O(12) phosphor prepared by combustion method: Anomalous heating rate effect, dosimetric features, and TL kinetic analyses
(Elsevier, 2022) Hakami, J.; Oglakci, M.; Portakal-Ucar, Z. G.; Sonsuz, M.; Kaynar, U. H.; Ayvacikli, M.; Topaksu, M.
The structural and thermoluminescence characteristics of samarium doped Ca3Y2B4O12 samples at various concentrations are presented. The samples were synthesized via the combustion method. The thermolumines-cence (TL) glow curves for Ca(3)Y2B(4)O(12):Sm3+ depict strong peaks at 97 and 410 C. Ca(3)Y2B(4)O(12):Sm3+ exhibited completely opposite behavior, contrary to expectations, in that the luminescence intensity of both the total and individual glow peaks increased with the heating rate throughout the TL experiments. This unusual TL glow peak pattern was discussed via the Mandowski model of semi-localized transitions. The kinetic characteristics of both prominent glow peaks were established using various analysis techniques, including variable heating rate, initial rise (IR) by using the TM-Tstop method and the fractional glow technique (FGT), and computerized glow curve deconvolution (GCD). The dose response of the high temperature peak at 410 C is linear between 0.1 and 5 Gy, and then sublinear at higher doses. In addition, the repeatability and fading results of 410 C TL peak also yielded very favorable results. These findings suggest that Ca(3)Y2B(4)O(12):Sm(3+ )has great potential in the development of high temperature dosimetric materials for beta irradiation.
Structural and thermal insights into the luminescent behavior of Dy3+-Doped BaZrO3 with alkali metal codopants under UV radiation
(Pergamon-Elsevier Science Ltd, 2025) Arslanlar, Y. Tuncer; Alajlani, Y.; Coban, M. B.; Kaynar, U. H.; Aydin, H.; Orucu, H.; Guinea, J. Garcia
This study investigates the structural, thermal, and photoluminescent properties of Dy3+-doped BaZrO3 (BZO) perovskites, synthesized via a co-precipitation method, incorporating alkali metal codopants (Li+, Na+, and K+). Xray diffraction (XRD) analysis confirmed the retention of the cubic perovskite phase following doping, with Rietveld refinement further revealing minor lattice distortions due to Dy3+incorporation. The Williamson-Hall (W-H) analysis revealed average crystallite sizes of 53 nm and 66 nm for undoped and 0.01 Dy3+-doped BaZrO3, respectively, with corresponding micro-strain values of 1.79 x 10-3 and 1.81 x 10-3, suggesting lattice distortions due to incorporation of Dy3+. Fourier transform infrared (FTIR) spectroscopy confirmed the cubic perovskite structure and subtle structural modifications upon doping. Notably, the absence of moisture-related peaks highlights the effectiveness of the synthesis process, including rigorous drying and calcination steps that prevented hydrous species. Photoluminescence (PL) analysis of Dy3+-doped BaZrO3 exhibited three prominent emission peaks at 452 nm, 573 nm, and 656 nm under 368 nm excitation. These peaks correspond to the characteristic intra-4f electronic transitions of Dy3+ ions, specifically, 4I13/2 to 6H15/2, 4F9/2 to 6H13/2, and 4F9/2 to 6H11/2, representing blue, yellow, and red emissions, respectively. Photoluminescence decay studies showed multi-exponential behavior, with the average lifetime decreasing from 641 mu s in undoped BZO to 492 mu s in Dy3+- doped samples attributed to enhanced non-radiative recombination pathways. Among the codopants, Li+ demonstrated the most significant improvement in luminescence intensity and thermal stability by mitigating defects and optimizing charge compensation.

(Elsevier Sci Ltd, 2024) Altowyan, Abeer S.; Sonsuz, M.; Kaynar, U. H.; Hakami, Jabir; Portakal-Ucar, Z. G.; Ayvacikli, M.; Topaksu, M.
This study investigates the luminescent properties and dosimetric potential of YCa 4 O(BO 3 ) 3 :0.5%Sm 3+ phosphor synthesized via the combustion method. Dose -response investigations unveil a noteworthy linear increment in thermoluminescence (TL) intensity, emphasizing a remarkable linearity spanning a broad dose range from 0.1 to 300 Gy. Unusual heating rate effects are explored, revealing a shift in TL glow curve peak temperature (i.e 200 degrees C) towards higher temperatures with increasing heating rate. Speculative models, including Kinetic Trapping Effect, Thermal Quenching Compensation, and Defect Activation Energy Changes, are proposed. The study employs the T max - T stop method to identify characterize glow curve peaks, and the Initial Rise method for the lowtemperature segment analysis, revealing seven distinct trap levels at various depths within the bandgap. Glow curve deconvolution using the Complex Glow Curve Deconvolution (CGCD) method delineates a multi -peak structure, offering valuable insights into luminescent mechanisms. The model exhibits a Figure of Merit (FOM) of 1.71%, within an acceptable range, affirming its reliability. However, interpretation of the activation energy and frequency factor values suggests intricate site processes, necessitating a nuanced analysis to understand the material 's luminescent characteristics. The YCa 4 O(BO 3 ) 3 :0.5%Sm 3+ phosphor demonstrates promising characteristics for precise dosimetry, with linear dose response, absence of saturation effects, and intriguing heating rate behavior.
Temperature-dependent photoluminescence of novel Eu 3+ , Tb3+ , and Dy3+ doped LaCa4 O(BO3)3 : Insights at low and room temperatures
(Pergamon-Elsevier Science Ltd, 2024) Altowyan, Abeer S.; Coban, M. B.; Kaynar, U. H.; Hakami, Jabir; Ayvacikli, M.; Hiziroglu, A.; Can, N.
This study explores the structural and optical qualities of LaCa4O(BO3)3 (LACOB) phosphors doped with Eu3+, Dy3+, and Tb3+ using a microwave-assisted sol-gel technique. It uncovers oxygen-related luminescence defects in LACOB, highlighting emission peaks at 489 and 585 nm for Dy3+, a distinct sharp peak at 611 nm for Eu3+ in the red spectrum, and a notable green emission for Tb3+ due to specific transitions. The photoluminescence (PL) analysis indicates that luminescence is optimized through precise doping, leveraging dipole interactions, and localized resonant energy transfer, which are influenced by dopant concentration and spatial configuration. Temperature studies show emission intensity variations, particularly noticeable below 100 K for Tb3+ doped samples, demonstrating the nuanced balance between thermal quenching and luminescence efficiency. This temperature dependency, alongside the identified optimal doping conditions, underscores the potential of these materials for advanced photonic applications, offering insights into their thermal behavior and emission mechanisms under different conditions.
Thermoluminescence behaviour and kinetic analysis of a novel Tb3+-Doped LaCa4O(BO3)3 phosphor: Impacts of heating rates and dose
(Elsevier Sci Ltd, 2025) Madkhali, O.; Bulcar, K.; Barad, A.; Zelai, T.; Souadi, G.; Alathlawi, Hussain J.; Kaynar, U. H.
This study employs kinetic analysis methods to comprehensively understand the thermoluminescence (TL) behaviour of Tb3+-doped LaCa4O(BO3)3 ( LACOB ), applying the Hoogenstraaten and Booth-Bohun-Parfianovitch methods, as well as the T m-T stop and Glow Curve Deconvolution (GCD) techniques. Optimal TL intensity was found at a Tb3+concentration of 2 wt%, beyond which concentration quenching occurred. The complete TL glow curve before preheating displays two peaks at approximately 70 degrees C and 286 degrees C. After preheating, only the 286 degrees C peak remains, due to its greater stability and intensity, making it the primary TL peak relevant for dosimetric applications. As the heating rate increased, the TL glow peaks shifted to higher temperatures and exhibited reduced intensity due to thermal quenching. The TL intensity exhibited superlinear behaviour at lower doses (0.5-20 Gy), followed by nearly linear behaviour at intermediate doses (30-100 Gy), and sublinear behaviour at higher doses. Anomalous fading of the TL signal was observed in LACOB:2 wt%Tb, suggesting competition with radiationless transitions. Activation energy values derived from Hoogenstraaten and Booth-Bohun-Parfianovitch methods showed close alignment, supporting the reliability of the kinetic analysis. The T m-T stop and GCD analyses with preheating identified four distinct TL glow peaks, with activation energies between 1.72 and 1.82 eV. Analysis whole glow curve revealed nine TL glow peaks overall, ranging from 1.08 to 1.82 eV, reflecting a complex trap structure with continuous energy distributions. The GCD method yielded a Figure of Merit (FOM) of 2.67 % with preheating and 2.84 without preheating, indicating a strong fit between experimental and theoretical data in both cases. The material demonstrated excellent stability and reusability, making it a strong candidate for dosimetric applications.
Thermoluminescence glow curve analysis of Ca3Y2B4O12 phosphor prepared using combustion method
(Pergamon-Elsevier Science Ltd, 2022) Hakami, J.; Sonsuz, M.; Kaynar, U. H.; Ayvacikli, M.; Oglakci, M.; Yueksel, M.; Topaksu, M.
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 degrees C at a heating rate of 2 degrees Cs-1. Significant glow peaks were observed at 64, 116, and 242 degrees 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.
