Different kinds of glasses and sand from Brazilian beaches were studied at IPEN and showed favorable characteristics for their use for high-dose dosimetry. The possibility of using semi-precious stones from Brazilian as topaz, amethyst and jasper, and jade samples from different parts of the world, have been studied and tested at IPEN, using the technique of thermoluminescence. The objective of this work was to study citrine samples for application in high-dose dosimetry, using the OSL technique. The thermal treatment for reutilization of the materials was 300oC during 1h in an unsealed oven. The samples were irradiated using a Gamma Cell-220 system of 60Co (dose rate of 1.47 kGy/h), with doses from 50 Gy up to 300 kGy. The reproducibility of the OSL response presented a maximum variation coefficient of 5.7%. The lower detection limit was obtained as 350 mGy for the citrine pellets. The results show that the OSL detectors based on citrine may be useful for high-dose dosimetry in industrial processes and in the sterilization process of materials in hospitals.1343-1343openAccessOptical stimulated luminescence from citrine for high-doses dosimetryResumo de eventos científicos0000-0002-7362-2455https://orcid.org/0000-0002-7362-2455
