Effect of Eu2+Eu2+ concentration on afterglow suppression in CsI:Tl, Eu

Combined radioluminescence and thermoluminescence experiments on the co-doped scintillator material CsI:Tl, Eu were extended in the present investigation to a sample with diminished europium concentration. Simulations based on postulated rate equations with empirically adjusted parameters are consistent with observed insensitivity of afterglow suppression to europium concentration for sufficiently short radiation times.
