Abstract

Pellets of nanocrystalline aluminum oxide synthesized by a combustion technique are irradiated with 120 MeV Au9+ ions for fluence in the range 5 x 10(11)-1 x 10(13) ions cm(-2). Two photoluminescence (PL) emissions, a prominent one with peak at similar to 525 nm and a shoulder at similar to 465 nm are observed in heat treated and Au9+ ion irradiated aluminum oxide. The 525 nm emission is attributed to F-2(2+)-centers. The PL intensity at 525 nm is found to increase with increase in ion fluence up to 1 x 10(12) ions cm(-2) and decreases beyond this fluence. Thermoluminescence (TL) of heat-treated and swift heavy ion (SHI) irradiated aluminum oxide gives a strong and broad TL glow with peak at similar to 610 K along with a weak shoulder at 500 K. The TL intensity is found to increase with Au9+ ion fluence up to 1 x 10(13) ions cm(-2) and decreases beyond this fluence. (C) 2010 Elsevier B.V. All rights reserved.
