  • Method for reading the radiation dose received by a TSC dosimeter
    Patent number: 4181854
    Abstract: In a method for determining the radiation received in the past by a TSC dosimeter, the dosimeter is connected to a voltage source providing a polarizing voltage across the dosimeter and to an external closed electric circuit. The initial current pulse then flowing through the dosimeter due to its capacitive properties is detected and measured and if its peak value lies within a predetermined range the actual reading-off of the radiation dose received by the dosimeter is started in that a heating of the dosimeter is initiated and the thermally stimulated currents then produced by the dosimeter in the external closed electric circuit are measured and recorded.
