The identification and characteristics of the obtained compounds were determined by X-ray diffraction (XRD), Fourier transform infrared (FTIR) analyses, differential thermal analyses (DTA) and scanning electron microscopy (SEM). The glow curves were obtained using a thermoluminescent (TL) reader. The results revealed that all the rare earth oxides were not good activators for lithium triborate and the obtained compounds could not be used for dosimetric applications.eninfo:eu-repo/semantics/closedAccesslithium triboratesolid statethermoluminescentrare earth oxidesArticleQ1Q1296618622WOS:00029202730002118
