Abstract

Studies and applications of thermoluminescence (TL) dosimetric materials are reviewed. It is shown that the properties of commercial TL dosimeters satisfy a set of stringent requirements. The search and development of storage materials with required TL properties is based on approaches that involve the evaluation of the luminescence light yield. The specific features required for the dosimetry of high-energy particles and fast and thermal neutrons are considered. The use of TL with deep traps in high-temperature dosimetry is discussed. Results of pioneering studies of TL in nanosized materials are briefly presented.
