Oxidation suppression of Cu in alkaline aluminophosphate glass and the effects for radiation-induced luminescence characteristics

Abstract A glass phosphor is an attractive material for applications in radiation detections because of its high workability and availability with a wide range of chemical compositions. Recently, X-ray-induced luminescence of glasses containing various luminescent activators are actively investigate...
