Evaluation of the relative thermoluminescence efficiency of LiF:Mg,Ti and LiF:Mg,Cu,P TL detectors to low-energy heavy ions

Thermoluminescence glow curves and deconvoluted glow peaks of Ge doped flat fibers at ultra-high doses of electron radiation

“…Thus, the reduction in competition at higher dose causes extra supralinearity and more than quadratic behavior (Chen and McKeever, 1997;Kristianpoller et al, 1974). It should be also noted that the level of nonlinearity strongly depends on the ionization density (Gieszczyk et al, 2013).…”

Luminescence characteristics of C 5+ ions and 60 Co irradiated Li 2 BaP 2 O 7 :Dy 3+ phosphor

“…11b) and after that saturation sets in. The absorbed dose due to carbon ion beam irradiation on Li 2 BaP 2 O 7 :Dy was calculated [32][33][34] by using the relation (1). Because the dose value can change over a several orders of magnitude, within a single particle track, it is more convenient to introduce a physical quantity, D, describing an average value of the dose, deposited in the irradiated volume of the detector: D ¼ 1:602 Â 10 À10 :U: 1…”

Radial distribution of dose within heavy charged particle tracks – Models and experimental verification using LiF:Mg,Cu,P TL detectors

“…Irradiations of MCP-N TL detectors were implemented at the Department of Physics of the University of Jyväskylä, Finland (Gieszczyk et al, 2013a). 9.3 MeV/n xenon ions were chosen for irradiations, since we can expect that ions of higher ionization density will deposit higher local doses around the track core.…”

“…Therefore, high-dose, high-temperature effects observed in the MCP-N TL glow curves should be better displayed. Detectors were exposed using a fluence range from 10 5 to 10 9 particles/cm 2 , which is equivalent to the dose range from 10 0 to 2·10 4 Gy (in the meaning of an average dose deposited in the irradiated detector volume, calculated according to Gieszczyk et al, 2013a). The samples have been read out using the Harshaw 3500 manual TLD reader, up to 550 o C, at a constant heating rate of 2 o C/s.…”
