    Effect of Sm(3+)and Mn2+ incorporation on the structure and luminescence characteristics of Zn2SiO4 phosphor
    (Pergamon-Elsevier Science Ltd, 2021) Portakal-Uçar, Z. G.; Doğan, T.; Akça, S.; Kaynar, Ümit H.; Topaksu, M.
    To evaluate the dopant effect precisely, X-ray diffraction (XRD) for structural, scanning electron microscopy (SEM) with energy dispersive x-ray spectroscopy (EDS) analysis for morphological, photoluminescence (PL) and thermoluminescence (TL) characteristics of un-doped, 2.0 mol% Sm3+ doped and 2.0 mol% Sm3+;x mol% Mn2+ (x = 0.5, 1.0, 2.0, 4.0) doped Zn2SiO4 phosphors were tested. PL mechanisms of excitation and emission were discussed together with data on the structure and morphology of the samples. The beta doses from 0.1 to 500 Gy with various steps were applied to observe the glow curve readouts after 200 degrees C preheat at a linear heating rate of 2 degrees C/s from RT to 500 degrees C. Zn2SiO4:2.0%Sm3+;0.5%Mn2+ was chosen for further analysis due to having both the most PL and TL peak area. Various heating rate method was used to determine the kinetic parameters as well as initial rise with T-M-T-stop analysis and computerized glow curve deconvolution methods.

    Thermoluminescence properties of beta particle irradiated Ca3Al2O6 phosphor relative to environmental dosimetry
    (Elsevier, 2020) Bakr, M.; Portakal-Uçar, Z. G.; Yüksel, M.; Kaynar, Ümit H.; Ayvacıklı, M.; Benourdja, S.; Can, N.
    Undoped Ca3Al2O6 phosphor was successfully synthesized through a gel-combustion method using different fuels. It was characterized by X-ray diffraction (XRD) technique and its cubic phase structure was confirmed from XRD pattern. TL data were recorded from room temperature (RT) to 500 degrees C in the heating rate of 2 degrees C/s. The glow curves of Ca3Al2O6 sample exposed to different beta doses (0-200 Gy) exhibited a significant glow peak at about 184 degrees C. The TL intensity of the glow peak exhibited very good linearity between 0.1 and 10 Gy. Following this, it was decreased at higher doses which was referred to this effect as monotonic dose dependence. Initial rise (IR), peak shape (PS), and variable heating rate (VHR) methods were used to estimate trapping parameters. Computerized glow curve deconvolution (CGCD) method via TLAnal software was also applied to estimate the number of peaks and kinetic parameters corresponding to the main glow curve in Ca3Al2O6 sample. The trapping activation energy of the main dosimetric peak was calculated to be around 1.30 eV for all methods. Present findings confirm that Ca3Al2O6 host is a promising candidate for applications in environmental dosimetry as one depicts good TL dose response with adequate sensitivity and linearity.

    Thermoluminescence study and evaluation of trapping parameters of samarium doped barium silicate phosphor
    (Taylor & Francis Ltd, 2021) Alajlani, Y.; Oğlakçı, M.; Kaynar, Ümit H.; Ayvacıklı, M.; Portakal-Uçar, Z. G.; Topaksu, M.; Can, N.
    We report the detailed analysis of thermoluminescence (TL) glow curves and the evaluation of kinetic parameters of Sm3+-incorporated BaSi(2)O(5.)The effect of various heating rates on TL kinetics and glow peak temperatures of Sm3+-doped BaSi2O5 phosphors exposed to beta particle irradiation at room temperature are investigated. The glow curve of the phosphor exposed to beta-irradiation consists of two main peaks with maxima at about 91 degrees C and 193 degrees C and exhibits good linearity between 1 and 10 Gy. The activation energies and frequency factors of trap centers involved in the TL emission were calculated from the TL glow curve of the sample by means of variable heating rate (VHR), repeated initial rise (RIR), and computerized glow-curve deconvolution (CGCD). Analysis of the main dosimetric peak techniques indicate that activation energies (E) and pre-exponential factor (s) vary between 0.93 and 1.72 eV, 10(10) and 10(13) s(-1). It is found that the temperature of the glow peaks shifts toward the higher temperatures and the TL intensity smoothly decreases as the heating rate increases. The behavior of the TL intensities and glow peak temperatures as a function of the heating rate are discussed with regards to thermal quenching.
