Thermoluminescence Study of 210C Glow Peak in Synthetic Quartz and their Application in High Gamma Dosimetry
نویسندگان
چکیده
The thermoluminescence (TL) properties of laboratory grown quartz have been studied for its possible high gamma dosimetric applications. The variation of 210 o C glow peak is observed in different annealed samples followed by gamma irradiation near room temperature. The peak was found very sensitive to the pre-thermal treatments. The radiation induced effects in quartz have been studied in detail. The linear response of 210 0 C glow peak has been observed between 100 gray to 3.5kGy gamma dose thereafter it exhibits supralinear behavior. The experimental results obtained are discussed on the basis of present understanding of the TL in quartz. Keywords— Thermoluminescence, synthetic quartz PACS Code— 78.60.Kn, 87.53.Dq

متن کاملOn the Use of Synthetic Quartz as a Radiation Dosimeter
Quartz obtained from structural materials (bricks, tiles, etc.) is usually employed in retrospective accident dosimetry using the thermoluminescence (TL) technique. However, the TL response can be different depending on the sample due to the different concentration of the impurities in quartz lattice and the glow curves themselves show an enormous variety of shapes. In order to investigate the ...
