文章用提拉法生长出Li6Gd(BO3)3:Ce晶体,并对其光谱性能与发光过程进行了探索.借助于真空紫外-紫外透过光谱测试,发现晶体的透过光谱中存在Ce3+离子和Gd3+的特征吸收峰,同时还存在与Ce4+离子相关的电荷迁移带.对晶体的真空紫外-紫外激发发射光谱进行研究发现,在晶体存在着Ce3+离子的5d→4f辐射跃迁发光与Gd3+离子的4f→4f辐射跃迁发光,而且存在着Gd3+→Ce3+之间的能量传递.对Li6Gd(BO3)3:Ce晶体的X射线与γ射线激发发射光谱研究可知,晶体在高能射线激发下的闪烁光主要是Ce3+离子的发光.
Colorless and transparent Li6Gd(BO3)3:Ce crystals are grown with the Czoralski method.Their optical characteristics and luminescence processes are also investigated.The ultraviolet-vaccum ultraviolet (UV-VUV) transmittance spectra are measured and the result shows that absorption peaks due to Ce3+ ions and Gd3+ ions,and the absorption band related to charge transfer band of Ce4+ ions are present.According to the UV-VUV excitation and emission spectra,it is found that there appear luminescences of 5d→4f radiative transitions of Ce3+ ions and of 4f→4f radiative transitions of Gd3+ ions,and also Gd3+→Ce3+ energy transfer.The X-ray and γ-ray stimulated luminescence spectra show that the scintillation light of the crystal is mainly from Ce3+ ions.
