Synthesis of Eu/Dy rare earth doped strontium aluminate phosphor or material with varying concentration of co-dopant (Dy 3+ ) and fixed concentration of dopant (Eu 2+ ) is reported inside the manuscript. Phosphor are prepared and synthesized by using the technique of solid-state reaction in reducing atmosphere and activated charcoal was used to create the atmosphere. Mechanoluminescence pattern were recorded for variable concentration of doping / co-doping ions and it is found with the increment in the concentration of co-dopant up-to 1 mol%, the ML intensity increases and after that the ML intensity decrement occurs due to the phenomenon of concentration quenching. Similarly, for the optimized concentration the ML pattern obtained for gamma – irradiated phosphor and it shows linear response with dose so our study supports the ML dosimeter application to detect the radiation via mechanoluminescence study. The suitable models are compared herein, which are already reported by so many authors.
