Abstract: | Thermoluminescence (TL), dose-dependence of TL, optically stimulated luminescence (OSL), and EPR of Eu-doped strontium sulphate are studied. Eu enters the host lattice in 2+ charge state and does not change the charge state during energy storage and release. OSL disappears during pulse-step annealing of excited luminophor at the temperatures corresponding to dosimetric TL peak. Dosimetric TL peak can be destroyed by a continuous optical stimulation of excited sample. Ionizing radiation creates radiation defects in the host lattice, with the ionized sulphate anions being stable hole centres well above room temperature. Optical stimulation in the blue band (460–470 nm) causes the captured holes to be transported to the luminescence centres, similarly acts the heating of luminophor. The model of energy storage and release is discussed. |
