Abstract

Tissue-equivalent $MgB_4O_7$ TL phosphors were prepared and the effects of Lantanides series activators on TLD properties of the phosphors were studied. The glow curve of TLD increased TL intensity and the peak temperature is low that is, the heating rate is $10^{\circ}C/sec$. The activation energy of the main peak estimated by the peak shape method. By these methods, the estimated activation energies were $0.76{\sim}1.55eV$ respectively. The TL phosphors prepared in this work may be utilized to radiation sensor elements because of this high sensitivity to X-ray.
