Quality control (QC) of storage phosphor devices is important in assuring that the image information entered into an Image management and communication (IMAC) system is sufficient for diagnosis. QC of storage phosphor digital radiography systems is complex because of the self-corrective nature of the image-processing software used in these machines. Currently, one must produce hard copy to perform adequate QC. Inspection of images with reject analysis and inspection of cassettes and imaging plates has helped us in our QC program. For those QC tests using control limits, the appropriate settings for these limits are unknown. Starting approximations are given. Recommended tests are described.

Information storage and encryption are the key technologies for modern information transmission. However, most optical information storage technologies based on long persistent luminescent (PersL) only have one fixed response mode, which is easy to imitate, limiting their security in advanced information storage and encryption applications. Besides, the cost of rare earth-doped PersL materials restricts their wide application.

Despite recent advancements in organic phosphors, the synthesis of monodisperse afterglow microparticles (MPs) suitable for creating photonic crystals remains challenging. The SiO matrix is an attractive host material for activating the long-lived emissions of doped molecules due to several factors, including its cross-linked polymer-like structure, abundance of -OH groups, robustness, and presence of numerous emitter defects. However, the Stöber method struggles to produce monodisperse molecule-doped SiO MPs due to the complexity of the system.

Tuning the afterglow of polymeric phosphors is critical for advancing their use in optical data storage and display technologies. Despite advancements in polymer matrix design and dopant engineering, achieving dynamic control over afterglow intensity remains a significant challenge. In this study, a novel approach is introduced for dynamically tuning the afterglow of polymeric phosphors by integrating them into an inverse opal photonic structure.
