Energy recovery from Lu2O3:Tb,Hf ceramic storage phosphors

  • 1. Wroclaw Univ. (Poland). Faculty of Chemistry

Description

Lu2O3:Tb,Hf ceramics were investigated as energy storage materials. It was shown that X-rays caused a significant thermoluminescence with a main band around 250 C at a heating rate of 4.8 C s-1. 780 nm radiation released up to about 75% of the stored energy, while 420 nm light liberated all the stored energy in the form of green photons produced by the Tb3+ ions.
