Radiation dose monitoring using thermoluminescent detectors is currently one of the main methods of personal or environmental dose monitoring in China. In order to solve the problem of uniformity screening before the use of thermoluminescent detector, and the complexity of the measurement process. Test dose and thermoluminescent peak counts normalization were used to optimize the measurement process of thermoluminescent detectors. With the simple irradiation device, the same batch of thermoluminescent dosemeters for radiation environment monitoring were measured using the optimized and general measurement processes. The relative error of the dose values of the two was within ± 5%, which satisfied the accuracy requirements of thermoluminescent dosemeters in the process of monitoring the dose of ionizing radiation to the individual or the environment. The results show that the optimized thermoluminescent dosimetry process reduces detector uniformity performance requirements and improves the applicability of the process. It provides a high-precision, high-efficiency and low-cost measurement method for personal or environmental dose monitoring in China.
