Problems solved by technology

For sintering additives commonly used in sintering transparent ceramics, scintillation ceramics should be used with caution, preferably less or not, because these additives will seriously affect the scintillation performance
However, it should be treated differently. Due to the complexity of the scintillation mechanism, the addition of some ions can improve the luminescence performance, but the amount should be strictly controlled.
(LiuS, FengX, ZhouZ, et al. Effect of Mg2+co-doping on the scintillation performance of LuAG: Ceceramics[J].physicastatussolidi(RRL)-Rapid Research Letters, 2014,8(1):105-109.) Gadolinium oxysulfide is very easy to form a dead layer, which affects luminescence performance
(DoloJJ, SwartHC, TerblansJJ, etal.DegradationofcommercialGd2O2S:Tbphosphor[J].physicastatussolidi(c), 2008,5(2):594-597.) Although the high vacuum sintering method used to prepare transparent ceramics has low cost, It has the advantages of high preparation efficiency and large size, but it is not suitable for the preparation of gadolinium oxysulfide ceramics. Therefore, how to improve the sintering activity of the powder and reduce the sintering driving force starts with reducing the preparation cost of materials and preparing sulfur with excellent performance. Gadolinium oxide ceramics is one of the technical difficulties that those skilled in the art hope to overcome
