Thermoluminescence and dielectric response of LiKSO4:Gd to γ-radiation
- 1. Qatar Univ., Doha (Qatar). Dept. of Physics
Description
The effect of γ-radiation dose up to about 324 kGy on the thermoluminescence and dielectric properties of LiKSO4:Gd was studied. All glow curves exhibited a single peak around 373 K. The activation energy of this peak was estimated to be about 0.82 eV. The variation of the TL intensity with γ-dose is characterized by a maximum at 6.75 kGy. The dielectric dispersion was studied as a function of irradiation dose. In the low frequency range straight line behaviour was obtained for low dose (up to 12.3 kGy) while for higher γ-dose, semicircles are obtained. The bulk conductivity was found to increase with dose up to 6.75 kGy. (author)
