Abstract: | CdWO4 scintillator powders were produced via solid state reaction and investigated by thermally stimulated luminescence technique after UV irradiation. Under a heating rate of 0.1 K/s, the glow curve presented a superposition of peaks at low temperatures. Four peaks were identified below 80 K by partial heating method and their kinetic parameters were evaluated from the initial rise analysis. Measurements were also performed for heating rates of 0.05 and 0.2 K/s and allowed the kinetic study by peak position method. Surface effects due to the polycrystalline feature of the sample were investigated by comparing the results with those reported for CdWO4 single crystals. |
