Abstract
The features of the glow curves of LiF:Mg,Ti are dependent on many parameters of irradiation, storage, ionisation density and readout. These are presented herein with emphasis on their complexity. Successful applications require some understanding of the great diversity of the glow curves. Glow curve analysis/deconvolution in order to better understand the mechanisms is a 'tricky business' even with Tm-Tstop analysis. In the theoretical framework of spatially correlated trapping and luminescent centres, a mechanism is described which simulates the behaviour of composite peak 5 at different cooling rates and following photon bleaching at 3.65 eV.
期刊介绍:
Radiation Protection Dosimetry covers all aspects of personal and environmental dosimetry and monitoring, for both ionising and non-ionising radiations. This includes biological aspects, physical concepts, biophysical dosimetry, external and internal personal dosimetry and monitoring, environmental and workplace monitoring, accident dosimetry, and dosimetry related to the protection of patients. Particular emphasis is placed on papers covering the fundamentals of dosimetry; units, radiation quantities and conversion factors. Papers covering archaeological dating are included only if the fundamental measurement method or technique, such as thermoluminescence, has direct application to personal dosimetry measurements. Papers covering the dosimetric aspects of radon or other naturally occurring radioactive materials and low level radiation are included. Animal experiments and ecological sample measurements are not included unless there is a significant relevant content reason.
