Photoluminescence of Ga2S3:Sm2+ crystals

  • Published:
Inorganic Materials Aims and scope

Abstract

The photoluminescence spectra of Ga2S3:Sm2+ crystals have been measured in a wide temperature range (77–450 K). The results have been used to identify the mechanisms of the luminescence and energy transfer from the host to the rare-earth ion.
