Thermoluminscence characteristics of NaCl FeO2 relative to dosimetry

الملخص EN

The thermoluminescence (TL) characteristics of NaCl / FeO2 have been studied in the present paper considering its usage as an accidental dosimeter in the case of a nuclear fallout.

TL characteristics of NaCl / FeO2 have been examined under excitation with gamma dose up to 60 Gy from Cs-137 source.

The salt specimens are used in the form of powder (which is 1000 ppm of Iron dioxide) .

Initially two peaks were observed between 125-380 oC, having maximum intensity 17 times higher than that of the pure sodium chloride.

The material under investigation possesses many good dosimetric properties and therefore this can be considered as an accidental dosemeter.
