- thermoluminescent phosphors such as LiF (TLD- 100, TLD-600, TLD-700) and CaF 2 (TLD-300, TLD-400). These materials are contained in TLD badges and exposed to radiation prone locations for duration ranging from minutes to months. Thermoluminescent phosphors generate free electrons during exposure to irradiation, which are trapped in the forbidden band gap as soon as the irradiation stops. These electrons are captured in traps between the valence and conduction band of the material. When heat is applied to the thermoluminescent phosphors, the electrons recombine at recombination centers emitting light. This light is proportional to the cumulative absorbed radiation dose. An alternative method to release such traps is by using light of appropriate wavelength (material dependent) instead of heat. This process is known as Optically Stimulated Luminescence (OSL).

Description

BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION
Radiation levels are generally monitored by thermoluminescent phosphors, such as LiF (TLD- 100, TLD-600, TLD-700) and CaF2 (TLD-300, TLD-400). These materials are contained in TLD badges and exposed to radiation prone locations for duration ranging from minutes to months. Thermoluminescent phosphors generate free electrons during exposure to irradiation, which are trapped in the forbidden band gap as soon as the irradiation stops. These electrons are captured in traps between the valence and conduction band of the material. When heat is applied to the thermoluminescent phosphors, the electrons recombine at recombination centers emitting light. This light is proportional to the cumulative absorbed radiation dose. An alternative method to release such traps is by using light of appropriate wavelength (material dependent) instead of heat. This process is known as Optically Stimulated Luminescence (OSL).
The methods mentioned above are inherently off-line. Radiation can only be measured after the entire irradiation procedure. Therefore, existing luminescence based dose reading techniques are not suitable for real time dose measurements.

The radioluminescence signal emitted by the radioluminescence dosimeter has constant intensity level for consistent dose rate. The intensity is linearly proportional to changes in the dose rate provided to the specimen, in order to calculate rate of the radiation absorption by the specimen in real time.
Preferably, the radioluminescence dosimeter is a fabricated germanium-doped silica optical fiber.
Further, the dosimetry system includes a radiation hardened fiber to guide the radioluminescence signal from the radioluminescence dosimeter to the radioluminescence reader.

To facilitate reliable, fast and accurate readings in real time, the sensing material used for the radioluminescence dosimeter (110) is able to maintain constant level of intensity consistently at constant dose rate. Further, the intensity of radioluminescence signal is directly proportional to the changing dose rates. The radioluminescence signal emitted by the radioluminescence dosimeter (110), has a correlation with the received radiation dose and the absorbed dose is displayed by the output unit (170). The
