Radio- photo- and thermally stimulated-luminescence(RL,PL,TSL) measurements have been performed on SnO₂ sol-gel glasses doped ny 0.1mol%Ce and 3 mol%Gd, and on(0.1mol%Ce, 3mol%Gd) co-doped samples. Ce³⁺ 5d-4f emission peaking at about 2.7 eV has been observed in the Rl of SiO₂:0.1mol%Ce, while the typicalemission of Gd³⁺ centred at 3.97eV has been detected in SiO₂:3mol%Gd.
