Description

LiF, CaSO4/Dy in LiF and CaF2/Tm were used as thermoluminescent phosphors and their glow curves upon irradiation at room temperature with 60Co gamma-rays were examined at 15 s post-irradiation. The lowest temperature peak (Peak 0) for LiF was at 800C. For CaSO4/Dy in LiF, a total of six glow peaks were identified in the range between room temperature and 2600C. For CaF2/Tm, seven peaks were observed in the same temperature range. (orig.)
