What Does TLD Stand For?
TLD stands for Thermoluminescent Dosimeter Top Level Domain
TLD, or Thermoluminescent Dosimeter Top Level Domain, refers to a specialized category in radiation dosimetry that utilizes thermoluminescent materials to measure ionizing radiation exposure. These dosimeters absorb and store energy from radiation, which is subsequently released as light when heated. The TLD serves as a crucial tool in various fields, including medical dosimetry, environmental monitoring, and occupational safety, providing precise and reliable measurements of radiation levels to ensure safety and compliance with regulatory standards.
