Abstract:
The present paper reports the experimental results of dysprosium doped calcium sulphate (CaSO4:Dy) films deposited by spray pyrolysis method. CaSO4:Dy films were deposited on three different surfaces: glass, aluminum and quartz substrates at temperatures in the range from 450 to 600 °C. Structural and morphological characteristics of CaSO4:Dy films were observed. Thermoluminescent characteristics of films were determined by irradiating ultraviolet energy region. Thermoluminescent glow curve of CaSO4:Dy films with glass and aluminum substrates showed a peak under environmental irradiation. Both TL response glow shape and intensity of CaSO4:Dy films UV irradiated as a function of substrates were studied.
