Abstract

Dy-doped Ba3Y(PO4)3 single crystals were grown by the floating zone (FZ) method, and the photoluminescence (PL) and thermally stimulated luminescence (TSL) properties were evaluated. The highest PL quantum yield value was obtained from the 5% Dy-doped sample. The Dy-doped sample displayed PL emission peaks at 480, 580, 670, and 760 nm when excitation wavelengths were 325, 350, and 385 nm. The peaks were caused by the 4f–4f transitions of Dy3+. The Dy-doped samples also represented TSL peaks due to the 4f–4f transitions of Dy3+ when they were heated at 65 and 80 °C. The 1% Dy-doped sample showed the highest TSL intensity, and the TSL signal was detectable from 0.01 mGy.
