Neilo Trindade has completed his Physics degree and PhD in Materials Science at São Paulo State University (UNESP), Brazil. He has completed two post-doctorate positions. One with the Nuclear Physics Department at University of São Paulo (USP), Brazil, and another with Clemson University, USA. He has undertaken unprecedented studies of photoluminescence, thermoluminescence and optically stimulated luminescence of new materials. (Source: Lattes Curriculum)

Space agencies are interested in understanding the conditions of Martian and lunar surfaces, as well as radiation levels, to develop technologies for future missions. This project focuses on the evaluation of mineral simulants representative of Mars and the Moon, provided by the National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA), aiming to determine their viability as ionizing radiation…
Work Plan for the Visit of Dr. Makaiko L Chithambo. The visiting researcher will conduct a 45-hour minicourse - "Exploring the Use of Stimulated Luminescence in Different Areas of Radiation Dosimetry" - aimed at educating and training professionals and students interested in this constantly evolving field. Radiation dosimetry is fundamental in various fields, including nuclear medicine, r…
Researcher Dr. Eduardo G. Yukihara will promote short courses, conferences and/or seminars for Research Groups that work on the same theme, such as the Radiation Dosimetry and Medical Physics Group, from the USP Institute of Physics (IFUSP); and for members of the Institute for Energy and Nuclear Research (IPEN). Finally, the purpose of the visiting researcher will be to advise the team r…

Recent studies show that aluminum oxide crystals doped with carbon and magnesium (Al2O3:C,Mg) have high potential for application in the area of luminescent dosimetry, that is, as a solid-state ionizing radiation detector. The objective of this project is to produce pellets from Al2O3:C,Mg powders obtained by hydrothermal synthesis; and structurally and thermally characterize the samples.…
Space agencies have a strong interest in understanding the conditions of the lunar surface and radiation levels to develop technologies for future missions. This project focuses on evaluating the optical and thermoluminescent properties of lunar simulant minerals provided by NASA, aiming to determine their viability as ionizing radiation detectors. The analysis of thermoluminescence (TL) …
Space agencies are interested in understanding the conditions of Martian and lunar surfaces, as well as the radiation levels in these environments, to develop technologies for future missions. This project focuses on evaluating the luminescent properties of the mineral group olivines (Mg, Fe)2SiO4, which have been confirmed to be present in both Martian and lunar soils, and constitute abo…

Most minerals (silicates, carbonates, phosphates, etc.) exhibit the property of luminescent emission. This feature opens possibilities for studies of materials with potential application in luminescent dosimetry of ionizing radiation; specifically in areas of retrospective, accident and dating dosimetry. Within this context, the research of natural materials becomes a topic of social and …
Optically Stimulation Luminescence (OSL) is one of the main techniques used in medical and personal dosimetry of ionizing radiation. OSL is the luminescence emitted by the recombination of charges optically released from specific traps within a material previously irradiated by ionizing radiation. Despite several advantages of using this technique over others used in dosimetry; there are …
The use of ionizing radiation in modern society takes many forms, from health with diagnostic tests and treatments to the industry through food irradiation. Natural and synthetic dosimetric materials are used to determine the radiation dose received, with applications in medical and industrial activities. Natural materials have applications, for example, in retrospective dosimetry and can…

Identifying new materials suitable for radiation dosimetry remains challenging, and Optically Stimulated Luminescence (OSL) is a key technique for assessing luminescent properties. Among the traditional stimulation methods, such as Continuous Wave (CW-OSL) and Linear Modulated OSL (LM-OSL), the recently developed Variable Energy OSL (VES-OSL) method have emerged, focusing on deepen the un…
Investigating the application of insulators in the luminescent dosimetry area involves exploring minerals using techniques such as Thermoluminescence (TL) and Optically StimulatedLuminescence (OSL). Among these minerals, feldspar - a group of aluminosilicate materials (MTO8, M = Ca, Na, K~ T = Al, Si), stands out for its potential application in the dosimetry and datation area. However, m…
Alexandrite (BeAl2O4: Cr3+) is one of the chrysoberyl varieties that is widely found in Brazil. Recently has been studied as a natural dosimetric material because its composition combines BeO and Al2O3, oxides used commercially as dosimeters. Previous studies with beta radiation developed in Brazil showed that alexandrite presents five TL peaks (heating rate of 1ºC/s), ~75°C, 130ºC, 175ºC…
The use of natural materials, such as quartz, has been widely investigated in dosimetry (radiation detectors) because they have a lower cost than synthetic ones and can also be used in retrospective dosimetry. Quartz is largely to be found in Brazil, it is being investigated to act as a dosimeter using Thermoluminescence (TL) and Optically Stimulated Luminescence (OSL) techniques. Recent…
