Optically stimulated luminescence of the 20Li2O– (X)K2O – (80 - X)B2O3 glass system.

This type of glass presents desirable characteristics for dosimetry and has been intensively analyzed for TL [1]. Five glass formulations were produced [20Li2O – XK2O – (80-X)B2O3; X=10, 15, 20, 25, and 30 mol%] and analyzed regarding their OSL signal when exposed to a beta emitter source. If the total area below the curve was considered (Fig.1a), the composition named as L10KB presented the most intense signal. However, if the initial OSL intensity was chosen (Fig.1b), L15KB was the most sensitive. A comparison of the OSL decay for the two quoted compositions, after the application of a pre-heating process of 200 oC/10 s, showed a slightly change in the decay pattern comparing to the case without pre-heating. Pre-heating treatments also showed the relation between the shallow traps and the fast component of the OSL decay for L15KB, which was already noted for phosphate glasses [2]. For all compositions, an increase in the dose implied in an increase of the emitted signal, and no signal of saturation was verified for the tested dose range (0.1 Gy to 7 Gy).240-240openAccessluminescenceluminescent dosemetersboratesboron oxidesthermoluminescencex-ray diffractiondifferential thermal analysislithium carbonatespotassium carbonatesResumo de eventos científicoshttps://orcid.org/0000-0002-7362-2455
