Set-up for Pulsed OSL Readout of YAP:Mn Dosimetric Detectors

The experimental set-up is developed to study the dosimetric response of Mn
²⁺
-doped yttrium-aluminum perovskite (YAP:Mn) by means of optically stimulated luminescence (OSL) readout in pulse mode. The peculiarities of optical layout, photometric subsystem, time diagram of measurement procedure and the design of this set-up are described from the viewpoint of functionality required. Some experimental results are presented to demonstrate its features and capabilities for ionizing radiation dosimetry applications.
