Abstract

The viability of the concepts of using existing molecular nanostructures in LiF:Mg,Ti as solid-state nanodosimeters has been demonstrated. The concepts are based on mimicking radiobiology (specifically the ionization density dependence of double strand breaks in DNA) by using the similar ionization density dependence of electron-hole capture in spatially correlated TC/LC in the thermoluminescence and the identification of OSL with the “two-hit” F2 center.
