Mechanoluminescence, thermoluminescence, photoluminescence studies on Ca 3 Y 2 Si 3 O 12 :RE 3+ (RE 3+ = Dy 3+ and Eu 3+ ) phosphors
Abstract Dy 3+ and Eu 3+ activated Ca 3 Y 2 Si 3 O 12 phosphors were synthesized by the solid‐state synthesis method. The phosphors were characterized by X‐ray diffraction (XRD), mechanoluminescence (ML), thermoluminescence (TL) and photoluminescence (PL) to determine structure and luminescence. For...

phosphors were synthesized by the solid‐state synthesis method. The phosphors were characterized by X‐ray diffraction (XRD), mechanoluminescence (ML), thermoluminescence (TL) and photoluminescence (PL) to determine structure and luminescence. For ML glow curves, only one peak was observed, as only one type of luminescence centre was formed during irradiation. The Ca
