Abstract

Optical, scintillation, and dosimeter properties of AlN ceramic were reported. AlN sample was SHAPAL, a commercial product of Tokuyama Corp. for mainly a heat sink application. From ultra violet to near infrared wavelengths, it showed 0.02–1% transmittance with visibly translucent appearance. In photoluminescence (PL), it exhibited mainly two emission bands around 340 and 550 nm with primary decay times of 0.92 and 0.24 ns, respectively. X-ray induced radioluminescence spectrum was investigated and 340 nm peak showed high emission intensity. As a dosimeter property, thermally stimulated luminescence (TSL) was studied and glow peaks appeared at 80 and 320°C. The linearity between the irradiated dose and TSL intensity was studied and AlN ceramic exhibited a good linear response from 0.002 to 0.1 Gy.
