A Dosimeter is a device used to measure the exposure to ionizing radiation, typically in environments where workers may be exposed to radiation as part of their job. It is an essential tool in fields like nuclear power, healthcare (radiology), and non-destructive testing (NDT) to ensure safety by monitoring radiation levels and preventing harmful exposure.
A dosimeter works by detecting and measuring the amount of radiation that a person is exposed to over a period of time. The device can record the radiation dose in real-time or over a set period and is often worn on the body of the individual to monitor radiation exposure. There are different types of dosimeters, such as film badges, thermoluminescent dosimeters (TLD), optically stimulated luminescence (OSL) dosimeters, and electronic dosimeters.
This type uses a special photographic film that darkens when exposed to radiation. The degree of darkening correlates with the amount of radiation exposure. It needs to be processed to determine the radiation dose.
These dosimeters use crystals (such as lithium fluoride) that absorb radiation. When heated, the crystals release light, which is measured to determine the amount of radiation exposure.
This type uses aluminum oxide crystals that emit light when exposed to radiation. The amount of light emitted corresponds to the dose of radiation received.
These are digital devices that provide real-time monitoring of radiation exposure. They often display the radiation dose directly and may include alarms to warn if exposure exceeds safe limits.
