In this study, zinc phosphate particles with copper impurity were synthesized by the co-precipitation method. The structure of the produced particles was examined by XRD analysis, and the results indicated that the desired crystal structure was correctly formed. Also, the morphology of the produced particles was examined by SEM, which revealed rectangular plates with a thickness of less than 100 nm. The thermoluminescence curve of the zinc phosphate dosimeter with copper impurity was recorded under gamma irradiation using a 60Co source, and the dosimetric properties of this phosphor's thermoluminescence were investigated. Using the CGCD method, the thermoluminescence glow curve of the manufactured dosimeter was fitted, and its kinetic parameters were determined. According to the obtained results, the dose response of this sample up to a dose of 1000 Gy has a linear behaviour. The linear relationship between doses of 10 to 1000 Gy allows for various applications of this dosimeter in industrial irradiation areas, the monitoring and control of industrial irradiation processes, and the monitoring of reactor components that receive high doses or are involved in nuclear accidents, which can lead to radiation leaks and high doses. The relevant kinetic parameters of the thermoluminescence glow curve of the constructed dosimeter were investigated, and its repeatability was also assessed.
