Effect of γ-radiation on TL, ESR and evaluation of trapping parameters of K₂Ca(SO₄)₂:X (X = Dy or Eu) phosphors

Thermoluminescence dosimetry properties and kinetic analysis of K3Ca2(SO4)3F:Dy3+ phosphor

“…[ 28,29 ] TL intensity as a function of ion concentration is shown in Figure 5(b), and showed that TL intensity increased with doping concentration with the exclusion of concentration quenching and revealed that the prepared host material was suitable for a wide range of doping concentrations. [ 30 ]…”

Investigation of thermoluminescence response and trapping parameters of natural barite samples from Dongargaon mine, India

“…Rare‐earth‐activated luminescent materials play a vital role in many fields of applied research such as in nuclear power plants, [ 1 ] radiotherapy, [ 2,3 ] personnel exposure, [ 4–6 ] and environmental release. [ 7 ] Rare‐earth impurities integrated into the host matrix may be a reason behind the changes in thermoluminescence (TL) properties with dosage.…”

“…[ 8–13 ] Most TL‐based dosimetry systems encompass polycrystals as host matrices and show diffusion in dose–response at the higher dose range, and are therefore used for low‐dose measurements in the field of radiation protection dosimetry. [ 14,15 ] TL techniques could be an interesting area of research to measure higher doses incurred during various radiation processing applications, such as food irradiation, [ 16,17 ] radiotherapy, [ 2,3 ] and medical product sterilization. [ 18,19 ] Rare‐earth‐activated barites (BaSO 4 ), as well as naturally occurring barites are interesting systems that could have properties helpful for different dosimetric applications, [ 20–24 ] however there have been very few TL studies on naturally occurring barites.…”
