Abstract

The need for shielding materials amplified gradually due to the usage of ionizing radiation in our lives. The current work studied the impact of different doses of gamma rays on the radiation shielding, optical, and structural properties of the YBCO/WO₃ sample. The lattice parameters showed a slight variation when YBCO/WO₃ products were exposed to different doses of gamma rays. The density slightly decreased from 6.377 for 0 kGy to 6.369 g/cm³ for 50 kGy. The variation in radiation shielding properties was assessed before and after irradiation based on linear attenuation coefficient (LAC). A slight variation was noted in LAC, so the other parameters were calculated for the non-irradiated sample. According to the results, it might be said that YBCO/WO₃ product showed a high stability against gamma-rays’ doses, which can be nominated for exploitation in radiation shielding fields.
