Resumo
Magnesium tetraborate (MgB4O7) has garnered significant attention in recent years for ionizing radiation
dosimetry applications. Despite advances in the material’s performance, the fundamental mechanisms underlying
lithium (Li) and cerium (Ce) doping and co-doping remain unclear in the literature. In this study, we
comprehensively investigate the role of Li and Ce doping in modulating the luminescence behavior of MgB4O7.
To elucidate the underlying mechanisms, we employed an advance multi-technique characterization approach
using nuclear reaction analysis, synchrotron-based X-ray nanospectroscopy, X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy
(XPS), thermoluminescence (TL) spectrum emission, and photoluminescence (PL) spectroscopy. We have shown
that Li remains into the host matrix during the synthesis, being associated with shallow traps such as F2+
center. Also, approximately 50% of Ce4+ is reduced to Ce3+ on the material’s surface, forming complex defect
structures involving Ce ions and F-center. Additionally, we present strong evidence that the TL emission
around 580 nm originates from F-centers rather than trace Mn elements. Some mechanisms that compete
simultaneously with each other have been proposed. Our integrated strategy provides insights into the complex
dopant-induced electronic and optical transformations in MgB4O7, offering a detailed understanding of the
material’s luminescence characteristics.
