Abstract

The present paper reports the combustion synthesis of LiMgBO3 phosphor with Dy and Mn dopants. During the combustion synthesis we have used Dy and Mn activators so as to explore the possible compound for TL glow curve analysis and their application for TL dosimetry. The combustion synthesis method, though tricky but it is very simple and time saving method. This work deals with detail procedure for synthesis of LiMgBO3 phosphor with Dy and Mn dopants. We have also studied their TL glow curve analysis and luminescent characteristics for TL dosimetry. Preparation of Lithium Borate host materials is tricky work. The synthesis is not straightforward. We became successful in synthesizing few mixed borate compounds by combustion synthesis method. Thermoluminescence studies were carried out on all the possible combinations of LiMBO3:Re (M = Mg, Ca, Sr, Ba & Re = Ce, Eu, Dy, Mn). The TL sensitivity of LiSrBO3:Dy is comparable with the CaSO4:Dy. We have successfully achieved the 71% TL sensitivity in this phosphor however it has high Zeff value because of Strontium. Whereas the TL peak temperature was found to be 178°C, lower than that of CaSO4: Dy.
