Energy and Angular Dependence of Thermoluminescent Materials to Beta Monitoring*
The increasing use of (sealed and nonsealed) beta radiation sources in medicine, industry and research implies the necessity of a metrologically reliable dose measurement in workers exposed to this type of radiation. The value of dose limits to be determined for occupational exposure in beta radiation fields is the equivalent dose on 1 cm2 of the evaluated skin, independently from the radiation...
متن کاملA search for novel thermoluminescent radiation dosimeter media.
We describe two example pilot efforts to help define new thermoluminescent dosimeter media. The first concerns ZnS:Mn nanophosphors, prepared by chemical precipitation using zinc and sodium sulfate, doped with manganese sulfate at concentrations varying from 1 to 3mol. The second concerns chemical vapor deposited diamond, produced as a thin film or as amorphous carbon on a single-crystal silico...
متن کاملUse of light source for testing thermoluminescent dosimeter readers.
It is a common practice to check the performance of a TLD reader by inserting a light source composed of a phosphor mixed with a radioactive material, e.g., 14C . The response to the light source is used as a measure of a) the calibration or long-term stability of the reader and b) the ability of the reader to reproduce a constant signal. Usually the laboratory which measures a wide range of do...
متن کاملA Passive Dosimeter for Evaluating Exposure to Hydrogen Fluoride
A passive dosimeter designed to measure exposure to hydrogen fluoride was tested under laboratory conditions over the concentration range of 0.56 – 4.47 mg HF/m. The lowest concentration was chosen to be close to the Polish TLV (0.5 mg HF/m). The dosimeter consists of a Whatman No.1 filter paper impregnated with K2HPO4 placed in a polyethylene holder protected by a polyethylene screen. After ex...
متن کاملSintered Al2O3 based Materials for Radiotherapy Thermoluminescent Dosimeter Applications
INTRODUCTION The thermoluminescent (TL) properties of various materials have been studied since a long time but many of these developments never reach the thermoluminescent dosimeter (TLD) users. α-Al2O3:C TL detectors were first developed and produced at Urals Polytechnical Institute ( UPI ) (1) in the form of a single crystal. These TLD ( model 2600 – 80 ) are now supplied by Victoreen to man...
