Time Resolved Optically Stimulated Luminescence (TR-OSL) from Be ceramics was investigated using blue (445 nm) and near-IR light (852 nm) for stimulation. Stimulation spectrum of the TR-OSL signal - as measured in the interval 700 to 420 nm- was observed to increase monotonically with the decreasing stimulation wavelength. In addition to the "fast" and "slow" components observed with blue light stimulation, IR stimulated TR-OSL spectra of irradiated BeO ceramics were observed to have two components with average lifetimes around similar to 2.5 mu s and similar to 17 mu s. Emission spectra of the both IR stimulated TR-OSL components were observed to have a broad emission band peaking around 330 nm. Thermal stability of the IR stimulated TR-OSL signal was studied by making preheating experiments in the range from 100 degrees C to 190 degrees C. It was observed that the IR stimulated OSL signal is stable up to similar to 150 degrees C and decay afterwards. Radiation dose response of the IR stimulated luminescence signal was obtained in the range from 5 to 500 Gy. Both blue and IR stimulated TR-OSL signals grew up to 100 Gy and exhibited saturation for higher doses. Additionally, measurement temperature dependence of the components was also investigated and for the similar to 2 mu s component thermal assistance with activation energy around 0.16 eV was observed. It seems that the fast component of the blue stimulated TR-OSL component can be correlated to the similar to 2 mu s IR stimulated TR-OSL component.

Time-resolved OSL of natural zircon: A preliminary study Bulur, Enver; Sarac, B. E. (Elsevier BV, 2014-01-01) Time-resolved OSL (TR-OSL) from natural zircon (ZrSiO4) minerals was investigated using 445 nm blue laser light for stimulation. Analyses of the TR-OSL spectra have showed that the decay is composed of two exponential components with lifetimes varying around similar to 17 mu s and around similar to 110 mu s respectively. The behaviour of these signal components, was examined under various sample treatments and experimental conditions. Preheating experiments showed that the OSL signal is stable up to tempera...
Optically stimulated luminescence from BeO ceramics: An LM-OSL study Bulur, Enver (Elsevier BV, 2010-01-01) Optically Stimulated Luminescence (OSL) signals of BeO ceramics were investigated using continuous wave (CW) OSL and Linearly Modulated (LM) OSL It was found that both curves can be approximated using a linear combination of two first-order components. Experiments on the measurement temperature dependence have shown that these two components have nearly the same thermal quenching energies around 0.57 eV. Dependences of the OSL signal on preheat temperature and radiation dose were also examined. Thermal anne...
Overview of the beam emission spectroscopy diagnostic system on the National Spherical Torus Experiment Smith, D. R.; Feder, H.; Feder, R.; Fonck, R. J.; Labik, G.; McKee, G. R.; Schoenbeck, N.; Stratton, B. C.; Uzun Kaymak, İlker Ümit; Winz, G. (AIP Publishing, 2010-10-01) A beam emission spectroscopy (BES) system has been installed on the National Spherical Torus Experiment (NSTX) to study ion gyroscale fluctuations. The BES system measures D-alpha emission from a deuterium neutral heating beam. The system includes two optical views centered at r/a approximate to 0.45 and 0.85 and aligned to magnetic field pitch angles at the neutral beam. f/1.5 collection optics produce 2-3 cm spot sizes at the neutral beam. The initial channel layout includes radial arrays, poloidal arrays...
Frequency Selective Characteristics of a Plasma Layer with Sinusoidally Varying Electron Density Profile GÜREL, ÇİĞDEM SEÇKİN; Oencue, Emrah (Springer Science and Business Media LLC, 2009-06-01) In this study reflection, absorbtion and transmission characteristics of a plasma layer having sinusoidally varying electron number density are analysed. In the analysis, plasma layer is divided into thin subslabs with constant electron number densities. The general frequency selective behavior of the plasma is investigated by varying the plasma parameters, external magnetic field excitation and sinusoidal electron distribution in order to be used in recent plasma applications.
Time reconstruction and performance of the CMS electromagnetic calorimeter Chatrchyan, S.; et. al. (IOP Publishing, 2010-03-01) The resolution and the linearity of time measurements made with the CMS electromagnetic calorimeter are studied with samples of data from test beam electrons, cosmic rays, and beam-produced muons. The resulting time resolution measured by lead tungstate crystals is better than 100 ps for energy deposits larger than 10 GeV. Crystal-to-crystal synchronization with a precision of 500 ps is performed using muons produced with the first LHC beams in 2008.
