采用高温熔融法制备了不同Ln2O3(Ln=Lu,Y,Gd)情况下Tb3+激活的重金属氧化物闪烁玻璃样品。测试了不同Ln2O3玻璃样品的密度,差热特性,透过、发射和激发光谱。着重研究了玻璃成分中不同稀土氧化物对闪烁玻璃的密度及发光性能的影响规律及机理。结果表明：在含Ln2O3闪烁玻璃中,含Lu2O3硅硼酸盐玻璃的密度最高,接近6g/cm3,发光强度性能最差。含Gd2O3硅硼酸盐玻璃的密度接近含Lu2O3硅硼酸盐玻璃的密度,其发光强度最大。其原因是Gd3+离子能把能量以共振能量传递的形式给Tb3+离子,提高Tb3+离子的发光强度。但当Gd3+离子浓度增大到一定程度时,能量传递的效率却明显减弱。含Gd3+离子的闪烁玻璃密度较高,发光强度大,是一种很有前景的闪烁材料。

Tb-activated heavy metal scintillating glasses with Ln2O3 (Ln=Y,Gd ,Lu)concentrations are prepared by high-temperature melting method. The effects of Ln3+ ions on the density, thermal properties, transmission, and luminescence properties are investigated. Comparing these data, glasses containing Lu2O3 exhibit a density of near 6.0g/cm3,but the luminescence properties is poor. Glasses containing Gd2O3 exhibit the best sensitizing effect. The luminescence properties is the best in these samples. However , when the concentration of Gd2O3 increase,the sensitizing effect drop dramatically.
