The origin of x-ray luminescence from CdTe nanoparticles in CdTe/BaFBr : Eu2+ nanocomposite phosphors

Abstract
X-ray luminescence from CdTe nanoparticles is observed when CdTe nanoparticles are encapsulated into BaFBr:Eu2+ phosphors. In contrast, negligible x-ray luminescence is observed from the unencapsulated nanoparticles, either in solution or in solid form. The origin of the x-ray luminescence is attributed to the effective energy transfer from Eu2+ ions to CdTe nanoparticles in the nanocomposite materials. The x-ray luminescence of these nanocomposites is dose dependent and the emission wavelength is size adjustable which may allow use as a type of dosimeter for both in vitro and in vivo applications.
