We focus on the development of Ge-doped silica thermoluminescent dosimeters with sensitivity superior to that of the LiF (Mg,Ti) phosphors popularly used in x-ray diagnostic imaging dosimetry, typically in the form of the product TLD-100. Of interest are Ge-doped silica telecommunication fibres (...
