a lithium borate thermoluminescence dosimeter with 0.3 wt% of manganese impurityconcentration was prepared for high dose levels in the range of 1-30 kgy for gamma irradiation applications.the tld reader was used for read out purposes from ambient temperature to about 400°c with a heating rate of 6°c/sec. the pre- and post- irradiation anneal temperature was 300°c for 1.5 and 1 hours respectivel...

Abstract The present article deals with potassium magnesium borate glass activated copper that was prepared by a melting quenching technique to study the feasibility of this as radiation dosimeter. glasses were characterized through X-ray diffraction and FTIR spectroscopy some optical physical parameters have been interpreted. thermoluminescence properties samples studied, results revealed dope...

This work intend to identify and follow up quality control parameters to improve thermoluminescence dosemeter (TLD) system used for personal dosimetry in ionizing radiation metrology laboratory (IRML). Characterization of personal dosimetry system has presented in terms of the stability of reader calibration factors, linearity of response for Cs as reference radiation source, energy and angular...

With interest in the potential of optical fibres as the basis of next-generation thermoluminescence dosimeters (TLDs), the development of suitable forms of material and their fabrication has become a fast-growing endeavour. Present study focuses on three types of Ge-doped optical fibres with different structural arrangements and/or shapes, namely conventional cylindrical fibre, capillary fibre,...

In the present work, electron paramagnetic resonance (EPR) spectra and thermoluminescence (TL) emission of colourless natural topaz from Santo Antônio do Jacinto, Brazil, was studied as a function of thermal treatment and gamma irradiation dose, focussing on the use of this material as a radiation dosimeter. EPR measurements on "as-received" samples at room temperature provided signals in the r...
