Resumo
According to results of the literature, some unusual rare earth elements, such as terbium, have been shown to
be promising as a dopant in CaSO4 matrix. Silver has also been used in the co-dopant function. As there are
no reports on the structural characterization of CaSO4 : Tb with the incorporation of silver, the aim of this
work was to produce and characterize terbium doped CaSO4 crystals, co-doped with silver oxide (Ag (Ox))
and silver nanoparticles (Ag (NP)). The main purpose is to use them as alternative TL dosimeters to those
commercially available. The phosphors were produced by the slow evaporation route and characterized by X-ray
diffraction (XRD), which confirmed the viability of the route, and by scanning electron microscopy (SEM). The
silver nanoparticles were produced by the method of Lee and Meisel and characterized by ultraviolet-visible
spectrophotometry (UV-Vis), SEM and XRD. The composites in the form of pellets were obtained from the
addition of Teflon to the phosphors. The TL emissions of the new materials produced were investigated. It
was observed that the addition of silver as a co-dopant in the CaSO4 : Tb matrix shifts its main TL peak
to higher temperatures, and the presence of Ag (NP) increases the intensity of this peak. By means of the
TL emission curves of the composites, some parameters associated with the charge transfer processes in these
materials were determined. The lower detection limit of the composites was also evaluated. The crystals of
CaSO4 : Tb; Ag(NP) presented higher sensitivity than CaSO4 : Tb; Ag(Ox). All samples have a luminescent
signal reproducible and linear, with TL responses proportional to the absorbed doses.
