In this book, the authors give an up-to-date account of thermoluminescence (TL) and other
thermally stimulated phenomena. Although most recent experimental results of TL in …

Conclusions Thermally Stimulated Luminescence is a consolidated experimental technique,
that however has not been used extensively, also due to the limited physical information it …

The photocatalytic activity of sillenite Bi12GeO20 powders prepared with a chemical solution
decomposition technique was studied for the first time. The photocatalytic activity of the as …

The photocatalytic activity of Bi12SiO20 powders prepared with a chemical solution
decomposition technique was investigated for the first time. Bi12SiO20 with low specific …

In this study, various plasmonic binary composites Ag-Bi 12 GeO 20 were fabricated through
a facile in-situ photo-reduction route and subsequently analyzed by multitudinous …

We investigated the background absorption spectrum of undoped and doped crystals within
the BMO family (Bi12MO20, M= Ge, Si, Ti). Dopants were Al, Fe, Cu, Cu/V, and Cr. Many of …

A new series of BaRE6 (Ge2O7) 2 (Ge3O10)(RE= Tm, Yb, Lu) germanates and activated
phases BaYb6 (Ge2O7) 2 (Ge3O10): xTm3+ and BaLu6 (Ge2O7) 2 (Ge3O10): 12yYb3+ …

Abstract Crystalline Bi 12 GeO 20 samples were irradiated with F ions at 30 MeV.
Spectroscopic ellipsometry measurements were used to determine the optical constants of …

Bi 12 GeO 20 single crystal grown by Czochralski method was investigated in terms of
thermoluminescence (TL) properties. TL experiments were performed for various heating …

The absorption and transmission spectra of Bi 12 MO 20 (M= Ge, Si, Ti) sillenite crystals
were studied in the range 300–900 nm. Doping and vacuum annealing were found to have …
