Dr. Eduardo G. Yukihara

 
 

Our research is focused on fundamental and applied aspects of luminescence dosimetry and luminescence materials. Our group has extensive expertise in thermoluminescence (TL) and optically stimulated luminescence (OSL) techniques and their applications in neutron dosimetry, medical dosimetry, space dosimetry, etc. We also develop basic research on defects in solids and synthesis of luminescence materials.


Check OSL News for recent updates on the lab.
