Abstract

In this paper we present comparative reports on CaSO4 and LiF standard materials. CaSO4: Mn has a very high sensitivity but fading of the dosimetry peaks is relatively rapid. The CaSO4: Tm and CaSO4: Dy each has a stable glow peak at about 220°C.  LiF has an effective Z of 8.2 (of. 7.4 for tissue) and the energy response relative to tissue is good. Both the materials are available commercially.
