A novel real-time optical fibered dosimetry system based on optically stirn ulated luminescence (OSL) of SrS:Ce,Sm phosphor was developed and is presented. The advantages of this system are the combination of OSL and optical fibers, immediate readout, simplicity of use, low cost, reliability, flexibility, and robustness. Experimental results show an excellent linearity with the dose (0.01 to 6 Gy), repeatability better than 2%, radiation sensitivity up to 80 mV.cGy-l and accuracy since error on dose is less than 5%. The applications targeted are the measurement of the dose delivered during a treatment in radiation therapy and the monitoring of the dose or dose-rate around or in nuclear reactor and accelerator facilities in high energy physics. Further experiments are still to be conducted in order to fully characterize the system and evaluate the feasibility of each application mentioned.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
