Abstract

In the present study, three CaF2:Dy chips, known as TLD-200 dosimeter, were irradiated

beta dose of 11 cGy and then its thermoluminescence glow curves were recorded using different four filters in order to determine the most suitable filter pack. The minimum detectable dose of TLD-200 dosimeters was calculated with D0 % ıB)F formula,

where B* is the mean TL background signal, ıB is the standard deviation of the mean

background and F is the TL system calibration factor, and the MDD value was found to be as 45.66 ± 0.72 μGy.

Keywords: Thermoluminescence, TLD-200, Minimum detectable dose, Filter packs.
