Characterization of defect centers existing in GaS single crystals were studied by virtue of thermoluminescence (TL) experiments accomplished in the temperature ranges of 10-230 K. Two distinctive peaks centered at peak maximum temperatures of 91 and 146 K and one faint peak, like a shoulder, appeared around 175 K were detected from the TL emission of the crystal by heating the sample with a rate of 1.0 K/s. Among the analysis methods well-known from the TL theory, curve fitting method was applied to calculate the activation energy of trap levels related to those of obtained peaks and the thermal activation energy values of 52, 200 and 304 meV were established, respectively. Heating rate dependence of the observed peaks was studied by successfully achieved measurements with various heating rates between 0.2 and 1.0 K/s (See Figure). The shifts of the TL peaks to higher temperatures were obtained with increasing heating rate. Interestingly, both anomalous and normal heating rate behaviors of the peaks were observed together. Clearly, the intensity of the peak A diminished with raising heating rate as expected. However, the intensity of the peak B increased seven fold with implementation of the highest heating rate. This conduct was interpreted with semi-localized transition model [1]. Existence of such two different behavior of the TL peaks was firstly experienced. Moreover, distribution of the trap levels were investigated by employing different illumination temperatures ranging from 10 to 30 K. This resulted with increase of the activation energies of the trap levels from 52 to 90 meV, from 200 to 268 meV and from 304 to 469 meV, respectively, which can be ascribed to a quasi-continuous distribution

Characteristic features of thermoluminescence in neodymium-doped gallium sulfide Güler, Işıkhan; Ahmedova, F.; Guseinov, A.; Hasanlı, Nızamı (2018-06-01) The thermoluminescence (TL) of neodymium-doped gallium sulfide (GaS:Nd) single crystals was measured from 10 K to room temperature with various heating rates between 0.2 and 1.0 K/sec. Two peaks centered at 70.9 K and 116.0 K were observed when using a heating rate of 0.8 K/sec. Initial rise and curve fitting methods were used to obtain information on trap activation energies. Activation energies of 94 and 216 meV were found for two analyzable peaks. The heating rate dependencies of TL intensities revealed ...
Characterization of trap centers in Gd2O3 nanoparticles by low temperature thermoluminescence measurements Delice, S.; IŞIK, MEHMET; Hasanlı, Nızamı (2018-01-01) Trapping centers in Gd2O3 nanoparticles were investigated using thermoluminescence (TL) measurements in the below room temperature region of 10-280 K. Seven peaks having peak maximum temperatures between 30 and 252 K were observed in the TL spectra measured at constant heating rate of 0.3 K/s. Activation energies, order of kinetics and frequency factors were reported using three different analysis techniques: curve fitting, initial rise and peak shape methods. Activation energies of the trapping centers wer...
Investigation of traps distribution in GaS single crystals by thermally stimulated current measurements Delice, S.; Isik, M.; Hasanlı, Nızamı (2021-04-01) Thermally stimulated current (TSC) investigations of p-GaS (gallium sulfide) single crystals grown by Bridgman method were achieved by virtue of consecutive experiments carried out at various heating rates in between 0.4 and 1.0 K/s in the temperature range of 10-280 K. One single TSC peak around 148 K and overlapped, incomplete peaks in the end limit temperature of the experiments were observed in the spectrum recorded at constant heating rate of 1.0 K/s. Individual peak was analyzed utilizing curve fittin...
Low-temperature thermoluminescence in TlGaS2 layered single crystals Isik, M.; Bulur, Enver; Hasanlı, Nızamı (2013-03-01) Thermoluminescence (TL) measurements have been carried out on TlGaS2 layered single crystals in the temperature range of 10-300 K. After illuminating with blue light (similar to 470 nm) at 10 K, TL glow curves exhibited peaks around 23, 36, 58, 75 and 120 K when measured with a heating rate of 0.8 K/s. The observed peaks were analyzed using curve fitting, initial rise, and peak shape methods to determine the activation energies of the associated defect centers. Analyses have revealed the presence of five de...
Low-temperature thermoluminescence study of GaSe: Mn layered single crystals Delice, S.; Hasanlı, Nızamı (Informa UK Limited, 2016-01-12) Mangan doped GaSe single crystals have been studied by thermoluminescence measurements performed with various heating rates between 0.4 and 1.0 K/s in the temperature range of 10-300 K. Thermoluminescence spectra exhibited four distinguishable peaks having maximum temperatures at 47, 102, 139 and 191 K revealing the existence of trapping levels in the crystals. Curve fitting and initial rise methods were applied to observed peaks to determine the activation energies of four trapping levels. Capture cross-se...
