Radioluminescence and Optically Stimulated Luminescence Responses of a Cerium-Doped Sol-Gel Silica Glass Under X-Ray Beam Irradiation
Résumé
Ce-doped sol-gel silica glasses were prepared for real-time X-ray dose or dose rate monitoring using radioluminescence (RL) and optically stimulated luminescence (OSL). A small piece of this glass scintillator was connected to two optical fibers, allowing a remote measurement of the ionizing radiation dose through RL and OSL signals. By using this Ce-doped material, we particularly demonstrated that the RL signal shows a linear behavior at least up to dose rates of 1.2 Gy/s. Furthermore, the linear dose response of the OSL signal can be extended up to 500 Gy, independently of the used dose rate.
