Abstract

This review deals with the following subjects: general characteristics of TL materials (including: LiF; Li₂B₄O₇; BeO); TL dose response and TL models (including: dependence of f(D) on impurity composition; supralinearity of individual glow peaks); ionising radiation dosimetry (including: dose response; cavity theory and applications); beta dosimetry; UV induced TL; instrumentation and techniques.
