This study presents a wireless and quantitative light dosimeter based on SrAl2O4:Eu2+,Sm3+, a phosphor that can store energy upon exposure to blue and ultraviolet light. It demonstrates the potential for optical read-out and successful measurement of average daylight intensities using this technology.
Light sensors are widely used to monitor light intensities, for instance in medical applications, in agriculture or for conservation of art. Most of these sensors are electronic devices that record continuously but applications that only require information of integrated intensities, measured over a long time, could greatly benefit from an integrating dosimeter that does not require a power supply. In this work a wireless and quantitative light dosimeter is presented based on SrAl2O4:Eu2+,Sm3+, a phosphor that exhibits stable energy storage upon exposure to blue and ultraviolet light. It is shown that a forward electron transfer from europium to samarium can be induced under illumination with blue or ultraviolet light while the reverse electron transfer can be achieved by illuminating the phosphors with green to infrared light. This reverse transfer is accomplished through excitation of the divalent samarium and results in bright, green optically stimulated luminescence. The stable energy storage, in combination with the possibility for optical read-out, makes SrAl2O4:Eu2+,Sm3+ ideally suited to be used as an integrating light dosimeter for monochromatic to broadband light, from the ultraviolet to the near infrared. To demonstrate this, a proof of concept dosimeter was developed in which this phosphor was successfully used to measure average daylight intensities.
