Abstract
Laser-stimulated thermoluminescence emission is reported from a novel transparent glass phosphor exposed to gamma-ray or ultraviolet radiati on. Laser-heated radiation dosimetry measurements, using this effect, are reported. A unique laser heating method permits the stimulation of the thermoluminescence without significantly raising the bulk tempera ture of the glass. (C) 1996 American Institute of Physics.
