γ-Ray measurements in boron neutron capture therapy using BeO ceramic thermoluminescence dosimeter

Measurements of γ-rays and neutrons in BNCT irradiation field using thermoluminescent phosphor

“…The impurities in the BeO ceramic plates and their contents are listed in Table II. 28) The plate size was 10 × 10 × 0.7 mm 3 (Fig. 6).…”

“…28) In addition, the neutron fluence determined using the gold activation method and γ-ray dose determined using the BeO powder TLD (UD-170LS, Panasonic) are shown in Table III for different irradiation times. 28) 3.2.2. TL glow-curve measurements.…”

“…In this review, we introduce a thermal neutron fluence measurement method using Cd plates and an Al 2 O 3 :Cr TL plate, which can selectively measure only thermal neutrons without correction for the γ-ray contribution, and a γ-ray dose measurement method using a BeO ceramic TL plate without powder dispersion that can measure γ-ray doses in a BNCT irradiation field without correction for the neutron contribution. 27,28) 2. Thermal neutron fluence measurements using TL phosphor Cr doped Al 2 O 3 and Cd converter 2.1.…”

Radio-photoluminescence phenomenon in Ag-doped Cs2O–CaO–Al2O3–P2O5 glasses

“…The other processes of OSL are the same as those of TSL. TSL dosimeters are utilized for personal dosimetry including medical applications [14][15][16][17] while OSL ones are applied for X-ray imaging as well as personal dosimetry. [18][19][20][21] However, especially in imaging applications, the OSL dosimeters have a problem.…”
