Abstract: | The ultimate goal of this work is the study of the effect of luminescence stimulations and signals reading modes combinations on the thermoluminescence intensity and glow curve behaviour for the same X-ray irradiation dose. Three interesting stimulating and reading modes are considered, namely, infrared stimulated luminescence (IRSL), blue light-emitting diode stimulated luminescence (BLSL) and thermally stimulated luminescence (TSL). The studied stimulation and reading modes combination protocols are (Protocol 1) IRSL-TSL, (Protocol 2) IRSL-BLSL-TSL and (Protocol 3) BLSL-IRSL-TSL. Experiments are performed on beryllium oxide (BeO) dosimeter. Results demonstrate well that the combination of reading modes have direct impact on the TL signal in terms of intensity and glow curve shape. It was also found that when reading modes are correctly combined, particularly when IRSL is applied first, then BLSL and TL, it is possible to collect two or more exploitable signals of different stimulation types for the same irradiation that can be used for different purposes and final applications. |
