Abstract
The present paper reports the experimental results of dysprosium doped calcium sulphate (CaSO 4:Dy) films deposited by spray pyrolysis method. CaSO 4:Dy films were deposited on three different surfaces: glass, aluminum and quartz substrates at temperatures in the range from 450 to 600°C. Structural and morphological characteristics of CaSO 4:Dy films were observed. Thermoluminescent characteristics of films were determined by irradiating ultraviolet energy region. Thermoluminescent glow curve of CaSO 4:Dy films with glass and aluminum substrates showed a peak under environmental irradiation. Both TL response glow shape and intensity of CaSO 4:Dy films UV irradiated as a function of substrates were studied.
