Abstract

A trap found in a solid state radiation dosimetry is characterized by kinetic parameters such as trap depth (Ea), frequency factor (s), kinetic order (b) and carrier concentration (no). Trap depth (Activation energy) is the required energy to release carriers in the trap. In this study, it is investigated that how the dosimetric trap depths of the traps found in the four natural calcite minerals are affected by reusable of them as a dosimeter. All samples were irradiated about 36 Gy beta dose and read out by a thermoluminescence dosimeter (TLD) reader. A computer glow curve deconvulation program (CGCD) was used to get the kinetic parameters. And the results are compared for the four calcite samples.
