preparation example Construction

[0033] The method for preparing rare earth ion-doped borophosphate scintillation glass for thermal neutron detection specifically includes the following steps:

[0034] 1) Accurately weigh each raw material according to the composition of the scintillation glass, and mix all the raw materials evenly. The Li 2 The O raw material is mainly composed of lithium carbonate (Li 2 CO 3 ) introduced, B 2 o 3 The raw material is boron oxide (B 2 o 3 ) or boric acid (H 3 BO 3 ) introduction; P 2 o 5 The raw material is ammonium dihydrogen phosphate (NH 4 h 2 PO 4 ) is introduced, and the doped Ce 3+ Ions can be introduced in the form of corresponding oxides, halides, carbonates, nitrates or sulfates; the purity of all raw materials should be analytically pure or above;

[0035] 2) Then pour it into an alumina crucible or platinum crucible and melt it into a glass melt. The melting temperature is 700-950°C. After melting, keep it warm for 0.5-3 hours. The working atmosphere ...

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to a borophosphate scintillation glass for thermal neutron detection and a preparation method thereof, in particular to a rare earth ion-doped borophosphate scintillation glass and a preparation method thereof, belonging to the field of luminescent materials. Background technique [0002] Scintillation material is a photofunctional material that converts the ionization energy of high-energy particles such as α, β, γ-rays or X-rays into ultraviolet / visible light. It has been widely used in fields such as imaging and safety detection. The neutron is an uncharged subatomic strong particle that does not cause ionization of matter and hardly interacts with extranuclear electrons. At present, the detection of neutrons is often realized by the detection of secondary particles produced by the interaction between neutrons and atomic nuclei. Therefore, to achieve effective detection of thermal neutrons, the scintillation material matrix m...
