Abstract: A radiation detection device, system and method is disclosed. A radiation detection badge in accordance with the invention comprises a radiation detection unit placed within a sealed thermoplastic package, wherein the thermoplastic package has a geometric feature that constrains the radiation detection unit to an orientation within the package. A radiation detection badge according to the present invention includes radiation detection units in a plurality of cup structures, sealed them with a plurality of corresponding lid structures. Further, a method of tracking radiation exposure of one or more batches of users is provided.

Abstract: A device for performing thermoluminescent dosimetry and a method for making the same is disclosed. A thermoluminescent dosimetry device in accordance with the invention comprises a chip holder for holding thermoluminescent chips in free-space, such that the thermoluminescent chips are capable of being directly addressed after exposure to radiation. The chips are preferably suspended in free-space through support structures which minimize the contact with the thermoluminescent chips. A radiation detection device is preferably fabricated by placing the chip holder and a filter in a cup and thermally scaling a lid to edges of the cup.
