Ba-Sr fluoride borates as inorganic radiochromic materials
Radiochromic sensors, which enable express visualization of ionizing radiation by change in color or transparency, are ubiquitous in medical, scientific, and industrial applications. Most of the currently known radiochromic materials belong to organic compounds, while the potential of inorganic materials in terms of radiochromicity remains nearly unexplored. Here we report the measurements of dose sensitivity of radiochromic coloration intensity and decay kinetics of radiation-induced color centers for inorganic Ba-Sr fluoride borates with the compositions Ba7(BO3)3.5F3.5 and Ba3Sr4(BO3)4F2. Experiments with irradiation of these polycrystalline materials using broadband synchrotron radiation (5–17 keV) revealed that the Ba3Sr4(BO3)4F2 material has dose sensitivity of radiochromic coloration potentially suitable for measurements of doses from several cGy to ∼10 Gy air kerma. The Ba7(BO3)3.5F3.5 material demonstrated a slightly lower dose sensitivity of radiochromic coloration than Ba3Sr4(BO3)4F2, but also revealed the possibility of quick bleaching of the radiochromic coloration using intense visible light, which may be used in the development of reusable radiochromic sensors.
期刊介绍:
The journal seeks to publish papers that present advances in the following areas: spontaneous and stimulated luminescence (including scintillating materials, thermoluminescence, and optically stimulated luminescence); electron spin resonance of natural and synthetic materials; the physics, design and performance of radiation measurements (including computational modelling such as electronic transport simulations); the novel basic aspects of radiation measurement in medical physics. Studies of energy-transfer phenomena, track physics and microdosimetry are also of interest to the journal.
Applications relevant to the journal, particularly where they present novel detection techniques, novel analytical approaches or novel materials, include: personal dosimetry (including dosimetric quantities, active/electronic and passive monitoring techniques for photon, neutron and charged-particle exposures); environmental dosimetry (including methodological advances and predictive models related to radon, but generally excluding local survey results of radon where the main aim is to establish the radiation risk to populations); cosmic and high-energy radiation measurements (including dosimetry, space radiation effects, and single event upsets); dosimetry-based archaeological and Quaternary dating; dosimetry-based approaches to thermochronometry; accident and retrospective dosimetry (including activation detectors), and dosimetry and measurements related to medical applications.
