(TLD) A thermoluminescent dosimeter contains a crystalline material (lithium fluoride, phosphor) for measuring radiation dose. TLDs are usually small crystals measuring 3 mm square by 1 mm thickness. Additional filters (absorbers) help to characterize the types of the impinging radiation. When heated, TLD crystals that have been exposed to ionizing radiation give off light proportional to the received energy. Further Reading: Basics:
