Investigation of a new LiF TLD individual dosimeter for measuring personal dose equivalent Hp(d) on different phantoms

Abstract

The paper describes a new LiF TLD dosimeter designed for measuring personal dose equivalent, H{sub p}(d). Its energy and angular response have been studied in detail on a PMMA slab phantom using the conversion factors for TE slab phantom. According to the results obtained with four types of different conversion coefficients and phantoms, i.e. a PMMA slab, Water slab, ICRU sphere and Alderson Rando phantom, the conversion coefficients for the TE slab phantom are suitable for the calibration of TLD individual dosimeters on PMMA slab phantom. In the energy range 17 keV to 1250 KeV the energy response for H{sub p}(10) and H{sub p}(0.07) is energy independent within -20% to 8.4% for frontal irradiation. For angles within {+-}60 deg the new TLD dosimeters indicate H{sub p}(10) within 0 to 22.5% and H{sub p}(0.07) within -11.1% to 1.3%, respectively. (authors).
