As a tissue-equivalent dosimeter, thermoluminescence (TL) materials based on BCNO have been developed. The photoluminescence quantum yield and the TL intensity had an anticorrelation for undoped BCNO. In addition, Mn doping significantly enhanced the TL intensity possibly owing to introduction of trapping sites of electrons and holes by the doping.
