Keywords:
Thermoluminescent, Thermal treatments, Thermal Fading, Dosimeters, TLD200Abstract
The effect of heat treatments on the response of calcium fluoride-doped dysprosium (TLD200) to radiation was studied in this research. The thermal treatments researched before the radiation was conducted included 100°C/h, 200°C/h, 300°C/h, and 400°C/h. The following similarity values were derived from the study's thermal treatments: 11.5%, 12%, 13%, and 17%, respectively. The results indicate that the 400°C/h heat treatment increased the response, which is one of the best treatments compared to the heat treatments under investigation.
