The global thermoluminescent dosimeter (TLD) services market size was valued at $405.9 million in 2018, and is projected to reach $1,335.90 million by 2026, registering a CAGR of 17.1% from 2019 to 2026.Thermoluminescent dosimeters (TLD) is a type of radiation dosimeter that measure ionizing radiation exposure by measuring the intensity of light emitted, which depends upon the radiation exposure from radioactive materials, absorbed doses, equivalent doses, and other related statistics. TLD functions on the principle of excitation of the electrons in the crystal. The excited electrons stay entrapped in the excited state and subsequently heating causes these electrons to fall back to ground state, thereby emitting photon energy in the form of visible light. This emitted light output is directly proportional to the radiation exposure, and the measurement is provided accordingly. Furthermore, the thermoluminescent dosimetry finds its application in measuring in vivo diagnostic radiology. Thus, this technique helps in quantitative measurement of X-rays, gamma, and beta radiations. As a result, of which, dosimeters majorly find their application in radiation metrology, experimental nuclear physics, medical safety & security, and nuclear power facilities. TLD offers advantage over conventional radiation measuring devices.T hese include their small size & lightweight and chemically inert nature. In addition, they are usable over wide range of doses value and their sensitivity is independent of the dose rate. Moreover, they are almost tissue equivalent and are reusable, which fuels their demand across various industries.
