The utilized materials are commercially available, and the aim of this study was to carry out a performance comparison. The results show that the energy dependence of the materials, except TLD-100, were very high. Therefore, there are several possibilities of pair combinations forming a tandem system, but all of them using TLD-100 with a high energy dependent TL material. For all pair combinations evaluated in this study, the differences in the measurement ratios of subsequent energy values were always higher than 14%. The main differences among these tandem systems were in the dose sensitivity. The more advantageous TLD pair, among all evaluated, was TLD-100 and TLD-200, but several other combinations were also very efficient.97-100openAccessbeamsdosimetryluminescent dosemetersphosphorusradiation protectionthermoluminescent dosemetersthermoluminescent dosimetryArtigo de periódico39https://orcid.org/0000-0002-7362-2455
