Relative Thermoluminescence Response of TLD-lOO, TLD-200 and GE-doped Optical Fiber to 8.05 keV X-ray

The responses of three types of thermoluminescence dosimeters (TLDs), namely the TLD-100, TLD-200 and Ge-doped optical fiber to soft X-ray with photon energy of 8.05 keY were measured. The X-ray source used is the vacuum spark plasma which is capable of producing intense coper K" line radiation...

description The responses of three types of thermoluminescence dosimeters (TLDs), namely the TLD-100, TLD-200 and Ge-doped optical fiber to soft X-ray with photon energy of 8.05 keY were measured. The X-ray source used is the vacuum spark plasma which is capable of producing intense coper K" line radiation at energy of 8.05 keY. The output dosage of the vacuum spark X-ray source is measured by a calibrated ion chamber and it is found to increase with operating voltage. The TL sensitivities of TLD-l 00, TLD-200 and Ge-doped optical fiber are determined and results are normalized to their responses to 60CO gamma rays. The TL sensitivities are found to be 1.2 for TLD-100, 29.0 for TLD-200 and 13.8 for Ge-doped Optical Fiber.
