| Outline of Final Research Achievements |
This work dedicates to the new approach of radiation dosimetry with silver-activated phosphate glasses (hereafter, Ag-glass) for various radiation fields. The Ag-glasses provide three different signals of 1) radio photo luminescence (RPL), 2) nuclear etched-track and 3) optical absorption at specific peak. The combination of these three signals allows us to widen the dynamic range of measuring dose (from 10 uGy to 10 kGy) and LET (linear energy transfer) (>1 MeV/um). A complementary approach for radiation dosimetry by combining three different signals from the Ag-glass will be applicable in various radiation fields.
