Abstract
Thermoluminescence (TL) characteristics of NaYF4 crystals doped with Sm3+ have been studied after γ-ray irradiation. Dependence of luminescence efficiency on Sm3+ concentration and radiation dose has been measured and possible applications of NaYF4: Sm3+ as a novel phosphor for TL dosimetry have been investigated. The efficiency of 0-3 mole% Sm3+ doped NaYP4 crystal has been found to be maximum and comparable with commercial thermoluminescence dosimetric (TLD) materials. © Indian Academy of Sciences.
