“…For UVC dosimetry, a lot of inorganic silicate based phosphors are researched because a silicate-based compound offers highly stable thermal properties, excellent homogeneity, high melting point (∼1700 °C) because of the silicon–oxygen covalent bonds throughout the crystal structure, and a large band gap due to being an insulator and being insoluble in water and other organic solvents. All these properties make it potentially suitable for optoelectronic, laser, and other high-tech applications. , There are various types of rare earth (RE) doped/undoped silicate phosphors including Bi 4 Si 3 O 12 :Dy 3+ , Li 2 SiO 3 , Mg 2 SiO 4 :Eu 3+ , lead-silicate glasses (PbO-SiO 2 ), Lu 2 SiO 5 :Pr 3+ , SrZrSi 2 O 7 :Ce 3+ , Sr 3 MgSi 2 O 8 : Eu 2+ ,Dy 3+ ,Mn 2+ , CaBaSiO 4 :Dy 3+ , Ba 5 Si 8 O 21 :Eu 2+ , Dy 3+ , and Cd 0.95 Eu 0.05 SiO 3 that are being successfully researched. When it comes to a similar structure (Li 2 MSiO 4 where M = divalent ions), very few works are reported on TL properties.…”
