Abstract
This article describes the essential features regarding the photo-stimulated luminescence of porcelain: both the main ceramic and glazing materials are studied. In each case, radiation dose dependent signals are observed, superimposed on dose independent luminescence transitions that are both Stokes and anti-Stokes shifted in energy.
Glazing is shown in some cases to be considerably more sensitive as a radiation dosemeter than the main porcelain ceramic. By comparison with the properties of artifical phosphors, the principal luminescent matrix is identified as being Al2O3, and the recombination centres in one glazing type are shown to be F-centres, Cr3+ and Dy3+.
