Optical and thermoluminescence properties of Lu2Si2O7:Pr single crystal
Single crystal of Lu2Si2OT:Pr was grown by Czochralski method. Transmittance, photoluminescence excitation (PLE) and photo- luminescence (PL) spectra, X-ray excited luminescence (XEL) and fluorescence decay time spectra of the sample were measured and dis- cussed to investigate its optical character...

Summary: | Single crystal of Lu2Si2OT:Pr was grown by Czochralski method. Transmittance, photoluminescence excitation (PLE) and photo- luminescence (PL) spectra, X-ray excited luminescence (XEL) and fluorescence decay time spectra of the sample were measured and dis- cussed to investigate its optical characteristics. The crystal structure of the as grown Lu2Si207:Pr was confirmed to be C2/m. There was a broad absorption peaking at 245 um in the region from 200-260 urn. The PL spectntm was dominated by fast 3py~3Hj band peaking at 524 nm. The XEL spectrum was dominated by the fast 5d14t~---~41e emission peaking at 265 nm. The 2D (temperature-intensity) and 3D (tem- perature-wavelength-intensity) thermally stimulated luminescence (TSL) spectra were measured. The Pr3+ ion was found to be the recombina- tion center during the TSL process. Three obvious traps were detected in LPS:Pr single crystal with energy depth at 1.06, 0.78 and 0.67 eV. |
