摘要
We carry out a comparison of the thermoluminescence (TL) response of photon and electron irradiated Ge- and Al-doped SiO2 optical fibres, as well as cross-comparison with that of TLD-100. Irradiation is made with 6 MeV electrons and 6 MV photons, for doses ranging from 0.2 Gy to 4.0 Gy. The commercially available Al- and Ge-doped optical fibres produce a linear dose-TL response. The TL yield for both of the doped fibres and also for TLD-100 is greater for electron irradiation than for photon irradiation. The TL yield of the Al-doped fibres is a small fraction of that of Ge-doped fibres (by a factor of 25), the Ge-doped fibres offering a response of 59% of that of TLD-100.
