Using commercially available, 0.3 mm thick rod-shaped, highly uniform 2B and HB grade polymer pencil lead graphite (PPLG), and subjected to a low-level neutron dose range of 2–10 Gy, a comprehensive understanding of radiation-induced effects have been achieved. The thermoluminescence (TL) and photol...
