    The radioluminescent (RL) dosemeter is excellent for real-time radiation measurement and can be used in various applications. A plastic scintillator is often the choice sensor because of its size and tissue equivalency. This study aims to characterise a novel plastic scintillator irradiated with high-energy photon beams. An RL dosimetry system was developed using the plastic scintillator. The RL dosimetry system was irradiated using a linear accelerator to characterise the dose linearity, dose rate, energy dependency and depth dose. The developed system showed a linear response toward the dose and dose rate. An energy dependency factor of 1.06 was observed. Depth dose measurement showed a mean deviation of 1.21% from the treatment planning system. The response and characteristics of the plastic scintillator show that it may be used as an alternative in an RL dosimetry system.
