Abstract :
The behavior of single crystals of NaCl: Ca2+, Mn2+ exposed to gamma rays was explored for its potential usage as a dosimeter. The study was focused to the effect of dose and dose rate. The crystals were analyzed using thermoluminescence (TL). The productions of irradiation defects in the solid were correlated with the glow curve. F-centers were measured as function of the dose. The bleaching of the F-centers produced a decrease of the peak of the glow curve. The results showed that the response is linear in an interval up to 60 Gy.
