Structural, optical and luminescence properties of lithium sodium borate glass doped with erbium of neodymium oxide

In this study, the structural, optical and thermoluminescence (TL) properties of lithium sodium borate (LNB) glass doped with Er3+ or Nd3+ ions were investigated. The glass dosimeters were prepared by using melt-quenching technique. The X – ray Diffraction (XRD) spectra had confirmed the amorphous n...
