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.
(Liu S, Feng X, Zhou Z, et al.Effect of Mg2+co‐doping on the scintillation performance of LuAG: Ce ceramics[J].physica statussolidi(RRL)-Rapid Research Letters,2014,8(1): 105-109.) Gadolinium oxysulfide is very easy to form a dead layer, which affects the luminescent performance
(Dolo J J, Swart H C, Terblans J J, et al. Degradation of commercial Gd2O2S:Tb phosphor[J].physica status solidi(c), 2008,5(2):594-597.) The high Although the vacuum sintering method has the advantages of low cost, high preparation efficiency, and large size, 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 to reduce the The cost of preparation and the preparation of gadolinium oxysulfide ceramics with excellent performance are one of the technical difficulties that those skilled in the art hope to overcome
