Performance of a Laser Heated TLD System for Personnel Radiation Dosimetry
Prototypes of a laser heated thermoluminescence dosimetry system consisting of a multi-element badge capable of measuring deep and shallow photon dose as well as neutron dose were evaluated for personal dosimetry. The brief details of the automated reader and badge design are presented. The system can discriminate between low and high energy photons and uses an algorithm to apply appropriate corrections stored in the system. Dosimetric performance of the system for personnel level doses are discussed here. Data for the batch response of badges is presented.
