Abstract

Thermoluminescence (TL) emission spectra in the visible and near infrared region of TLD-300 (CaF 2: Tm) commonly used for TL dosimetry were studied at exposures 286 and 7300 R. The TL emission spectra from 300 to 900 nm are observed every 2°C from 50°C to 320°C. Glow peaks appear at 110°C, 145°C, 235°C and 265°C. Emission bands in the spectra were measured at 357, 460, 655 and 805 nm. Discussion is given about a possibility of using the infrared emission band 805 nm as well as the visible emission bands in the routine work of radiation detector dosimetry at a temperature of around 145°C. Further we discuss the change of the integral glow curve for each of these emission bands for the exposure radiation at 286 and 7300 R.
