The effect of visible light on Harshaw Model 8801 thermoluminescent dosimeters
Description:
It has been known for some time that illumination of lithium fluoride (LiF) thermoluminescent dosimeters, particularly with ultraviolet wavelengths, causes these dosimeters to emit thermoluminescence (TL), similar to that caused by exposure to radiation. However the effect of incandescent light on dosimeters is not well documented. In this study the growth, saturation and spectral dependence of this luminescence is studied for open dosimeter cards illuminated with room incandescent light, and f…
