Description

We report here an energy transfer from Tb3+ to Eu3+, Mn2+ and Eu2+ to Tb3+ and Mn2+ for an un-irradiated and γ-irradiated B2O3-Al2O3-Na2O-SrF2 glass samples, respectively. The blue emission from Eu2+ ions as well as green and red emission from Tb3+, Eu3+, and Mn2+ ions will contribute to the generation of white light while excited at 339 nm using a xenon lamp. Furthermore, the chromaticity color coordinates, correlated color temperature, and quantum efficiency parameters are calculated for all the glass samples, and their relative variations with respect to γ-irradiation dose are presented
