Two different charge carrier trapping processes have been investigated in RE<sub>2</sub>O<sub>2</sub>S:Ln<sup>3+</sup> (RE = La, Gd, Y, and Lu; Ln = Ce, Pr, and Tb) and RE<sub>2</sub>O<sub>2</sub>S:M (M = Ti<sup>4+</sup> and Eu<sup>3+</sup>). Cerium, praseodymium and terbium act as recombination centers and hole trapping centers while host intrinsic defects provide the electron trap. The captured electrons released from the intrinsic defects recombine at Ce<sup>4+</sup>, Pr<sup>4+</sup>, or Tb<s ...[more]
