AB  - In this study, the infrared optically stimulated luminescence (IRSL) of single 
      crystals of Ce(3+) doped yttrium aluminum garnet (YAG) was investigated for the 
      first time. It was found that infrared stimulation of these crystals, following 
      previous exposure to beta radiation, produces a strong luminescence signal. The 
      highest luminescence efficiency was exhibited by the YAG crystal with 0.1% of Ce. 
      With this crystal, it was possible to measure as low doses as 0.1 mGy. Moreover, 
      IRSL is mainly related to the TL peak at a relatively high temperature of c.a. 
      175  degrees C, which leads to quite good stability of the signal in time. These 
      properties create good prospects for potential applications of YAG:Ce in 
      dosimetric radiation measurements.
