Abstract
Thermally and Optically Stimulated Luminescence (OSL) are known stimulated phenomena in condensed matter that can be used for luminescent material characterization. Both thermally and optically processes have become a
successful practical tool in radiation dosimetry. Special attention is dedicated to bioceramic as a material of choice for many dosimetric applications. This paper reports experimental results of dysprosium trivalent ion doped lanthanum aluminate (LaAlO3:Dy3+) using thermally stimulated luminescence (TSL) and optically stimulated luminescence (OSL) techniques. Samples of LaAlO3:Dy3+ were irradiated to beta doses, in air, from 1.6 Gy up to 26 Gy and then were analyzed using both TL and OSL techniques to determine their luminescent properties. Nanostructured powders were confirmed by the X-ray diffraction technique. Luminescent phosphors show a thermoluminescent glow curve obtained being exposed beta radiation of two peaks: one located at around 160 ◦C and the second one at 215 ◦C. Meanwhile, OSL decay is exponential form. TL and OSL response as a function beta radiation dose was linear in the studied dose interval (from 1.6 Gy up to 26 Gy). The very good sensitivity and
moderate fading will make this phosphor suitable for beta radiation detection, using both TL and OSL techniques.
