摘要
The radiative transition rate of Pr3+4f5d is large, which makes it as a promising luminescence center of fast scintillators. Samples of Ba3La(PO4)3(BLP) activated with Pr3+ were prepared through high temperature solid state method and characterized by XRD, temperature-dependent luminescence spectra upon VUV-UV and X-ray excitations and decay curves. Efficient and thermal stable Pr3+4f5d broad band emission with decay time of ~15 ns was observed. There is energy transfer from host to Pr3+4f5d upon excitation at 172 nm, however, the energy transfer is absent upon X-ray excitation which is attributed to influence of defects on surface. The results indicate that BLP:Pr3+ could be applied as an efficient VUV to UV-C converting material. In addition, the research is also important for designing novel fast scintillators. © 2021, Science Press. All right reserved.
