Influence of aliovalent impurity doping and effect of sensitized luminescence in KCl single crystals for dosimetry applications

Controlled Sr(ii) ion release from in situ crosslinking electroactive hydrogels with potential for the treatment of infections

“…26° confirming amorphous nature of PPy-NPs. 63,64 The XRD pattern of PEC-ALD/CS gel showed a very broad peak at around 2 θ = 30° with a shoulder centred around at 2 θ = 40° that indicates PEC-ALD/CS gel has an amorphous structure, 19 whereas the pattern of the PEC-ALD/CS/PPy-NPs gel showed a broad peak at around 2 θ = 22° and four sharp peaks at 2 θ = 31.78, 45.57, 58.59 and 75.49° correspond to NaCl (2 θ = 31.78, 45.57 and 58.59) 65 and KCl (2 θ = 31.78, 58.59 and 75.49°) 66 in the gel.…”

Scintillation Properties of Dy-doped 50NaPO3–50Al(PO3)3 Glasses

“…To detect ionizing radiation efficiently, the use of bulk materials is essential since the probability of an interaction between ionizing radiation and a detector material simply depends on the volume of the material. To satisfy this requirement, bulk single crystals, (9)(10)(11)(12)(13)(14)(15)(16)(17)(18)(19) ceramics, (20)(21)(22)(23)(24)(25)(26)(27)(28)(29)(30)(31) and glasses (32)(33)(34)(35)(36)(37)(38) have been applied for scintillators and dosimeters. Among these material forms, glasses have some advantages such as high chemical durability and high light transmittance, which are preferable for scintillator and dosimeter uses.…”
