Abstract: 

Gadolinium aluminum garnet (GAG) doped with Ce3+ ions was prepared by a co- precipitation method. The luminescent properties of Ce3+ ions in Gd3(1-x)Ce3xAl5O12 (e = 0.01) were studied in the temperature range of 77-500 K. At 77 K, the Ce3+ doped GAG exhibits broad-band emission with a maximum at 564 nm and a decay time of 68.4 ns. It was shown that the temperature quenching of the Ce3+ emission in GAG starts at 310 K and the quenching temperature (T50%) is 395 K. From the temperature dependence of the luminescence decay time upon excitation in the region of the Ce3+ 4f→ d1,2 absorption bands, the activation energy for the Ce3+ emission quenching in GAG was found to be 0.51 eV. The quenching mechanism in Ce3+-doped GAG was determined as the thermally induced ionization of Ce3+ ions.
