We have investigated the thermoluminescent response of three Germanium-doped silica-based optical fibers obtained by varying the drawing parameters from a unique preform. We compared under X-ray irradiation, their dosimetric properties to those of two widely used commercial dosimeters based on different technologies. Then, we investigated the...

The TSL response of Germanium doped optical fiber shows a good neutronand proton- detection efficiency and high gamma ray sensitivity. This opens the way to a universal dosimeter, particularly interesting at therapy levels.
