Keywords: optically stimulated luminescence, passive type dosimeter, calcium fluoride, thermally stimulated luminescence, thulium

An intense optically stimulated luminescence (OSL) with four emission bands in the wavelength range from 290 to 420 nm is observed for the first time in X-ray-irradiated Tm-doped CaF2 (CaF2:Tm) phosphor crystal. The OSL intensity increases almost linearly with increasing X-ray absorbed dose. Thermally stimulated luminescence (TSL) glow curves with four peaks are also observed in X-ray-irradiated CaF2:Tm phosphor crystal. It is confirmed that the shape of the TSL glow curve in X-ray-irradiated CaF2:Tm phosphor crystal is the same as that of a commercially available dosimeter (TLD-300). An OSL emission and stimulation mechanism of X-ray-irradiated CaF2:Tm phosphor crystal is proposed.
