Abstract Ce:LaB3O6 (LBO) glass, whose constituents are abundant elements and fabrication is easy and cheap, is found to be a promising thermoluminescence (TL) dosimeter. This is originally achieved by CeF3 doping and melting under a reducing atmosphere, with the optimum concentration of 0.1% (quantum efficiency = 66%). The corresponding Ce interatomic distance is ~ 4 nm, below which concentration quenching occurs via Ce dipole-dipole interaction, as elucidated experimentally by Dexter’s theory. Ce:LBO exhibits a good dose resolution, with a linear dependence covering five orders of magnitude on both irradiation-dose and TL-response. Furthermore, it can be cyclically irradiated and read without degradation.

Yb2+ -doped SrSi2O2N2 had been successfully synthesized using a conventional solid-state reaction method under reducing atmosphere. The phase and luminescence properties of the SrSi2O2N2 phosphors were investigated. Being an orange-red emitting phosphors, SrSi2O2N2:Yb was an emission peaking at 605 nm. With the increasing amount of Yb2+, the optical band gap of SrSi2O2N2 was decreased. The optical band gap of SrSi2O2N2 is decreased by Yb2+ increasing. The luminescence spectra of the nitrogen-rich coordination of Yb2+ in SrSi2O2N2 can be promoted. The concentration quenching mechanism of Yb2+ emission was responsible for the electric dipole–dipole interaction.

RbCaGd(PO4)2:Eu2+ was prepared by the Pechini-type sol–gel method. The crystal structure was determined in the first time. The dipole–dipole interaction plays a major role in the mechanism of concentration quenching of Eu2+ in this phosphor.

A novel blue-emitting phosphor NaBaBO3doped with Tm3+was prepared using a conventional high temperature solid-state reaction method. Its crystal structure and luminescence properties were studied. Photoluminescence measurements indicate that the phosphor features a satisfactory blue performance due to the1D2→3F4transition of Tm3+with the highest photoluminescence intensity located at 460 nm excited by 359 nm near-ultraviolet (NUV) light. In addition, the concentration of Tm3+was adjusted in order to obtain the optimum emission intensity. When the Tm3+concentration in NaBaBO3is 6.0 mol% the maximum intensity can be obtained. The concentration quenching occurs when Tm3+concentration is beyond 6.0 mol% and the concentration quenching mechanism can be explained by the dipole–dipole interaction. The measured chromaticity coordinate for the NaBaBO3:Tm3+phosphor under 359 nm excitation is determined to be (0.1470, 0.1090). The present work suggests that the NaBaBO3:Tm3+,K+phosphor is a promising blue-emitting material for NUV white light-emitting diodes.
