Dosimetric properties of the 570 K thermoluminescence peak of YAlO3:Mn crystals

We report results of the experimental study of thermoluminescent properties of the high-temperature TL peak at 570 K observed in YAlO3:Mn,Si crystals at low concentrations of manganese ions. The potential of this TL peak for thermoluminescent dosimetry of ionizing radiation is discussed. Main dosimetric properties of the TL peak including dose dependence, thermal fading and the effect of visible light exposure were studied.
