Synthesis and characterization of Gd2O2 S: Tb3+ phosphor powder for X-ray imaging detectors
Authors
Abstract:
Gadolinium oxysulfide phosphor doped with trivalent terbium have been synthesized using urea homogenous precipitation and followed by sulfurization at 800 °C under argon atmosphere. Structural and morphological of synthesized phosphor powder were characterized by x-ray diffraction (XRD), scanning electron microscopy (SEM) and Fourier transform infrared spectrometry (FT-IR). Hexagonal structure of Gd2O2S:Tb3+ phosphor was confirmed by XRD. Compositional analysis were carried out by energy dispersive x-ray (EDX) and particle induced x-ray emission (PIXE). Photoluminescence emission spectra was measured by fluorescent spectrometer. A sedimentation technique is used to deposit the phosphor powder directly on the glass substrate using poly vinyl alcohol as a paste. A number of phosphor layers have been synthesized with the layer thickness ranging from 150 to 268 µm. Measurement results of x-ray conversion efficiency for layers were investigated using 300 kVp X-ray tube in which the maximum light output and contrast were observed for layer with a thickness of 193 µm. Oxysulfide phosphor layer was analyzed by ion beam induced luminescence (IBIL). Emitting of green light from phosphor layer confirm its luminescence property.

full textSynthesis and characterization of oxygen doped ZnTe for powder phosphor application
The synthesis of efficient ZnTe powder phosphors is very difficult due to its high moisture sensitivity and chemical instability during processing. In this study, an efficient ZnTe:O powder phosphor for x-ray imaging application was successfully synthesized by vacuum firing ZnTe powder prepared from ZnTe bulk crystals ball-milled in an O2 atmosphere. The phosphors were characterized by x-ray di...
