Gamma ray induced thermoluminescence studies of yttrium (III) oxide nanopowders doped with gadolinium

Y2O3:Gd3+ nanophosphor was prepared by the solid state reaction method. Systematic studies have been done to investigate the structural and optical properties of the gadolinium doped Y2O3 phosphor. The prepared phosphor was characterized by using X-ray diffractometer (XRD), scanning electron microsc...
