Abstract
With the increasing use of nuclear energy, particularly for power production, there is need for radiation
detection and dose assessment. There is every need for the development of portable dosimeters for
personal and environmental monitoring in the fields like medicine, nuclear engineering, space
exploration, etc. Attempts are being made to develop portable solid state .dosimeters for insitu
measurements by utilising the techniques like thermoluminescence, therm.~lly stimulated currents and
optically stirnulaled luminescence. Some of the salient features of the above techniques for various types
of dosimeters are described and discussed in this paper.
