This paper aims to presents results on investigations of Thermoluminescent (TL) and Optically Stimulated Luminescence (OSL) properties of the Er3+-doped phosphate glasses produced at the Physics Department of Federal University of Juiz de Fora on a characterization for beta radiation dosimetry. It was used a RISØ TL/OSL reader and its coupled 90Sr/90Y beta source. The experimental findings indicate that the material presents linear responses of thermo (TL) and optically stimulated luminescence (OSL) over the absorbed dose range of 2 to 20Gy. Its emitted TL and OSL signal is more intense and with extended linearity range compared with undoped phosphate glass, probably caused by two absorption bands on 350–380 nm from Er3+. Further investigations are being carried out on its applications to other types and qualities of radiation.29-33openAccessthermoluminescenceluminescencedosimetryrare earthserbiumphosphate glassbeta dosimetryionizing radiationsArtigo de periódico12510.1016/j.radmeas.2019.04.0050000-0001-7137-0613https://orcid.org/0000-0001-7137-061366.17661.50
