Research abstract
AQUILA proposes adapting a commercially available nanodot technology to embed a small Optically Stimulated Luminescence (OSL) dosimeter into a Common Access Card (CAC), or some other military ID card. The nanodot dosimetry approach can be adapted to the size of a CAC, which is approximately 8.6 cm (3.37 in) high by 5.4 cm (2.125 in) wide. The typical thickness is about 0.8 mm (0.03 in). The OSL readout technology is well developed and will simply be adapted to a thinner OSL dosimeter than the ones currently in use. The desired range of dose is 200 cGy to 1,000 cGy (2 Gy to 10 Gy).
