Abstract

Thermoluminescence, dose dependences, and EPR of Mn-doped lithium tetraborate are studied. Mn is shown not to change a charge state during energy storage and release. Mn2+ amount decreases only at very high doses. The amount of Mn2+ depends on the sintering temperature and increases with temperature increase due to reduction of Mn from a higher oxidation state. X-irradiation creates optical absorption bands in Li2B4O7:Mn. Optical stimulation in the UV band is effective for OSL-readout and destroys dosimetric TL peaks. The model of energy storage and release is discussed.
