Abstract
Results of study of the thermoluminescent response of LiF:Mg,Cu,P+PTFE irra diated with beta particles are presented and compared with results for LiF TLD-100. Both materials exhibited a linear dose response in the range from 4.35 mGy to 2.17519 Gy. The glow curve of LiF: Mg,Cu,P+ PTFE exhibited four peaks while TLD-100 showed six. All the peaks studied for the two material s exhibited first order kinetics. The average values of activation energy w ere: 1.35, 1.58 and 2.51 eV for LiF: Mg,Cu,P+PTFE; and, 2.04, 2.24, 2.51 an d 2.89 eV for LiF TLD-100. (C) 2001 Elsevier Science Ltd. All rights reserv ed.
