We have developed the Eu-doped sulfide translucent ceramics such as CaS by the spark plasma sintering method, and the potential for radiation imaging applications was evaluated.Under X-ray irradiation, the prepared Eu-doped CaS translucent ceramics showed a broad emission around 650 nm, which was suitable for the wavelength sensitivity of Si-photodiode.
