A new generation of Alkaline earth sulfides (MgS, CaS, and BaS) doped with rare-earth ions have been identified by the University of Montpellier as the very high sensitivity of these phosphors, the short time constant of the luminescence and the perfectly separated spectra enable many applications in real time and online dosimetry. The online detecting technology of optically stimulated luminescent (OSL) radiation dosimeter main make use of the OSL characteristics of doping the alkaline-earth metal sulphides, makes the material into the thin films for storing energy from Ionizing radiation, the excitation light through optical fibers reached the where under radiation-field, with a sensitive detection device to read out the radiation dose from storing the OSL material, obtains a novel technology of radiation dose measurement. In the previous works, the dosimeter benefits from a printed circuit board mount. Both the sensor and the electronics are exposed to radiation, the problem of the radiation induced damage is supposedly being addressed. In both cases, the use of optical fibers can provide an elegant solution. Optical fibers offer a unique capability for remote monitoring of radiation in difficult-to-access and hazardous locations. Optical fiber can be located in radiation hazardous areas and optically interrogated from a safe distance. Hence, optical fiber dosemeters are immune to electrical and radio-frequency interference that can seriously degrade the performance of remote electronic dosimeters. In this paper, a novel remote optical fiber radiation dosimeter is described. The optical fiber dosimeter takes advantage of the charge trapping materials CaS:Ce, Sm and SrS:Eu, Sm that exhibit optically stimulated luminescence (OSL). The range of the dosimeter is from 0.01 to 1000Gy. The optically stimulated luminescent (OSL) radiation dosimeter technically surveys a wide dynamic measurement range and a high sensitivity. The equipment is relatively simple and small in size, and has low power consumption. This device is suitable for measuring the space radiation dose; it also can be used in high radiation dose condition and other dangerous radiation occasions.
