Öğe A study on thermoluminescence behaviour of Eu doped LaB3O6 irradiated with beta particles(Pergamon-Elsevier Science Ltd, 2020) Halefoglu, Y. Z.; Oglakci, M.; Portakal, Z. G.; Akca, S.; Souadi, G. O.; Canimoglu, A.; Topaksu, M.Lantanium triborate (LaB3O6) samples doped with Eu3+ ions are synthesized via combustion route. This study primarily reports the thermoluminescence (TL) behaviour of LaB3O6 host. X-ray diffraction (XRD) pattern reveals that LaB3O6 exhibits a single phase matched with JCPDS card 98-002-3609. Dose response, reusability and trap parameters of TL glow curves are evaluated to clearly reveal the TL features. The results show that the peak positions of TL glow curves are affected by varying the concentration of Eu. The experimental results obtained from the dose-response of LaB3O6:Eu3+ (1%) which has given high TL intensity reveal that the intensity of TL given by the total area under glow curves shows a good linearity (b = 0.997) up to 20 Gy. In addition, the minimum detectable dose (MDD) value has been calculated as 1.45 mGy with a standard deviation of 0.8%. Main TL peak maxima is observed around 197 degrees C with heating rate (HR) of 2 degrees Cs-1. An anomalous HR effect is observed for this peak in the range of 0.5-20 degrees Cs-1 with beta dose of 5 Gy. To find the overlapping peak numbers and determine the kinetic parameters of the main peak of LaB3O6:Eu3+ (1%), Initial Rise (IR) method using T-m - T-stop experiment and CGCD analysis have been performed for HRs of 0.5 and 2 degrees Cs-1. It can be said that the results of the methods are in good agreement when same trap numbers (at least eight separate peaks for both) and close energy values are taken into consideration. Deconvolution procedure of LaB3O6: Eu3+(1%) is performed using general order kinetic equation by R studio 'tgcd'. Additionally, the lifetimes of each deconvolved peaks by CGCD of Eu activated LaB3O6 (1%) have been calculated. Based on the results it can be put forth that TL characteristics of Eu doped LaB3O6 can be used as a promising material for thermoluminescence dosimetry-environmental applications.Öğe Comparative studies on thermoluminescence characteristics of non-doped Mg2SiO4 prepared via a solid-state reaction technique and wet-chemical method: An unusual heating rate dependence(Elsevier Science Sa, 2019) Dogan, T.; Akca, S.; Yuksel, M.; Kucuk, N.; Ayvacikli, M.; Karabulut, Y.; Canimoglu, A.Magnesium orthosilicate (Mg2SiO4) was synthesized via a traditional solid-state reaction and a wet chemical route. This study primarily reported the thermoluminescence (TL) behavior of Mg2SiO4 host. X-ray diffraction pattern revealed that Mg2SiO4 exhibits orthorhombic structure matched with JCPDS card 900-6398. Dose response, reproducibility and trap parameters of TL glow curves were evaluated to clearly reveal TL features. Two TL glow peaks situated at 81 degrees C and 192 degrees C were monitored at a heating rate of 2 degrees Cs-1. We observed anomalous heating rate effect for the peak centered at 192 degrees C whilst TL intensity of the peak at 81 degrees C decreases with elevating heating rate. Trap depths of the electrons within the trap centers were found to be 1.04 +/- 0.01eV and 1.37 +/- 0.01eV for both methods using peak shape (PS) method. Distribution of trap centers was examined using the T-max - T-stop method and this case indicated that the glow curves consist of single TL peaks. The intensity of TL glow curves exhibited a good linear dose response under total area up to 20 Gy. A comparison of the two preparation techniques revealed that TL characteristics of this phosphor are partly dependent and Mg2SiO4 could be a promising material for dosimetric application.

Several complementary methods such as powder X-ray diffraction (XRD), thermal analyses environmental scanning electron microscopy (ESEM), Radioluminescence (RL) and Cathodoluminescence (CL) techniques were used. Unique luminescence properties of Ce doped ZnB2O4 powder samples are reported for the first time. A new luminescence bands appearing in red part of the spectrum and having all the characteristics of Ce3+ were obtained from RL results. Changing the Ce and La concentration of 0.01-0.1 wt% leads to an increase in RL and CL intensities of Ce3+ and La3+ ions and also CL emission spectra of ZnB2O4 show gradual shift towards longer wavelength. When we compare the luminescence intensity of the samples it is seen that Ce doped ZnB2O4 has the highest intense whereas La doped ZnB2O4 has the lowest one. However, emission spectra of both Ce and La doped samples kept unchanged.Öğe Synthesis and photoluminescence characteristics of Dy incorporated MoO3 phosphor: Suppression concentration quenching(Pergamon-Elsevier Science Ltd, 2020) Ayvacikli, M.; Kaynar, Umit H.; Karabulut, Y.; Canimoglu, A.; Bakr, M.; Akca, S.; Can, N.A series of MoO3:Dy3+ phosphors have been synthesized via the gel-combustion method. The X-ray and photoluminescence (PL) emission spectra were employed to characterize the obtained phosphors. The prepared samples were characterized through XRD measurements and exhibited that Dy3+ ions can be successfully incorporated into the host material. The PL emission bands of Dy3+ doped MoO3 were observed at 486 nm, 574 nm and 666 nm which are assigned to the transitions of F-4(9/2) -> H-6(15/2), F-4(9/2) -> H-6(13/2) and F-4(9/2) -> H-6(11/2), respectively. Concentration quenching were largely taken into consideration as one of the crucial aspects limiting the application range of phosphors in today's modern world. An abnormal thermal quenching dependence was reported when Dy3+ ions were incorporated into MoO3 host matrix. In order to understand the origin of this beneficial behaviour, energy transfer processes occurring via radiative and nonradiative mechanisms were investigated to elucidate this suppression of the concentration quenching.Öğe Thermoluminescence properties of Tb doped Mg2SiO4 after beta irradiation(Elsevier, 2019) Akca, S.; Portakal, Z. G.; Dogan, T.; Kucuk, N.; Canimoglu, A.; Topaksu, M.; Can, N.In this study, we performed Thermoluminescence (TL) experiments to extract the trapping parameters and dosimetric properties of Tb-doped Mg2SiO4 phosphors. Glow peaks located at 193, 270, and 350 degrees C were observed in the glow curve but the peak at 193 degrees C was especially investigated as a dosimetric peak in this study. We also observed an anomalous heating rate effect in which the maximum TL intensity of the glow curve augmented with an increasing heating rate. The computerized glow curve deconvolution (CGCD) method, initial rise (IR) and Hoogenstraaten's method were used to determine the activation energies of associated trapping centers for both BSL-TL 365 nm and IRSL-TL wideband blue filters. The TL characteristics of this phosphor indicate that Mg2SiO4:Tb3+ could be a promising material for dosimetric applications. Efforts should be made to improve the fading behaviour by adding other activators as co-dopants.
