Coronene and liumogen as VUV sensitive coatings for Si CCD imagers: a comparison
1980
Phosphor coatings have long been employed in the detection
of UV radiation. With the interest in the use of silicon
charge coupled device (CCD) imagers as the detector for the
space telescope and other space-borne astronomical missions,
a UV sensitive phosphor is desired the emission spectrum of
which usefully matches the spectral response of the CCD.
Such a phosphor would provide an unparalleled opportunity
to image in the UV, the visible, and near IR wavelengths with the same detector. A recent study has suggested that coronene and sodium salicylate (which emit at 500 and 420 nm, respectively) are the most promising candidate phosphors. The potential of a third organic phosphor, liumogen, is the subject of this Letter.
