Description

The monitor of neutron personal dose to professional worker become more and more important with the development of nuclear industry,nuclear plant and nuclear radiation cure. The design and calculation of TLD-albedo personal dosimeter were taken by using MCNP-3B Monte Carlo code. After the present of neutron and photon fluence response, the method to determine the field correction factor was introduced. The calculated results showed that TLD-albedo personal dosimeter could work well for photon with energy: from 33 keV to 1.5 MeV and for neutron with energy from thermo-neutron to 10 MeV, and corresponding energy response deviation could be less than 30% and 60% respectively.
