They have high sensitivity, a large dynamic range, thermal stability and ease of preparation. Nevertheless, they can be enhanced by inclusion of lithium and this study reports some effects of lithium co-dopant on the TL and radioluminescence (RL) emissions of two TL phosphors. Addition of Li as a co-dopant ion was made either during chemical preparation of the phosphors, or as a binder component mixed with the basic phosphors matrix during the process of pressing and sintering the TLD pellets.EnglishAll Open Access; Gold Open AccessDoping (additives)DysprosiumLight emissionLithiumLuminescencePhosphorsSinteringTemperatureThuliumBinder componentsChemical preparationCo-dopantsCo-dopedDynamic rangeHigh sensitivityLow-temperature luminescenceRadio-luminescenceCondensed matter physicsConference paper10.1016/j.phpro.2009.07.031
