“…For instance, the LAC value for BBTTYb glass exhibited the best shielding properties at the energies of 622, 1170, and 1330 keV at 59.5 keV, as compared with RS 360 and RS520 glass. Furthermore, the prepared glass (BBTTER) with a composition of 25B 2 O 3 –20Bi 2 O 3 –45TeO 2 –7TiO 2 (BBTT) modified by 3RE 2 O 3 in mol

, where RE was La, Ce, Sm, Er, or Yb, was better than that reported in other glass systems modified with rare earth elements, such as 39B 2 O 3 –30PbO–20MO–10Bi 2 O 3 –1Eu 2 O 3 (where M is K, Na, Ca, Sr, or Ba) [ 49 ], B 2 O 3 –CaO–TeO 2 –ZnO–ZnF 2 –Sm 2 O 3 [ 50 ], and B 2 O 3 –SrCO 3 –Nb 2 O 3 –BaCO 3 –Dy 2 O 3 [ 51 ]. Table 5 and Table 6 present the measured mass attenuation coefficients (MACs) of the prepared samples in comparison with the calculated theoretical values using the MIKE and WinXcom software.…”

A novel series of glass, consisting of B2O3, Bi2O3, TeO2, and TiO2 (BBTT) containing rare earth oxide RE2O3, where RE is La, Ce, Sm, Er, and Yb, was prepared. We investigated the structural, optical, and gamma attenuation properties of the resultant glass. The optical energy bands, the linear refractive indices, the molar refractions, the metallization criteria, and the optical basicity were all determined for the prepared glass. Furthermore, physical parameters such as the density, the molar volume, the oxygen molar volume, and the oxygen packing density of the prepared glass, were computed. Both the values of density and optical energy of the prepared glass increased in the order of La2O3, Ce2O3, Sm2O3, Er2O3, and then Yb2O3. In addition, the glass doped with Yb2O3 had the lowest refractive index, electronic polarizability, and optical basicity values compared with the other prepared glass. The structures of the prepared glass were investigated by the deconvolution of infrared spectroscopy, which determined that TeO4, TeO3, BO4, BO3, BiO6, and TiO4 units had formed. Furthermore, the structural changes in glass are related to the ratio of the intensity of TeO4/TeO3, depending on the type of rare earth. It is also clarified that the resultant glass samples are good attenuators against low-energy radiation, especially those that modified by Yb2O3, which exhibited superior shielding efficiency at energies of 622, 1170, and 1330 keV. The optical and gamma ray spectroscopy results of the prepared glass show that it is a good candidate for nonlinear optical fibers, laser solid material, and optical shielding protection.

“…Also, dysprosium-doped lithium aluminium borate was also found to be suitable for dosimetric applications by Ike et al [18]. Structural, optical and nuclear radiation shielding properties of strontium barium borate glasses doped with dysprosium and niobium were studied by Sathiyapriya et al and reported as an alternative material in nuclear radiation shielding applications [19]. Ce-doped strontium borate glass exhibited a stronger luminescence due to Ce 3+ , as reported by Masai et al [20].…”

A series of SrAlBO4: Eu phosphors doped with different concentrations of Eu (0.1 0.3, 0.5, 0.7, 1.0 mol%) have been synthesized via solid state diffusion method and their thermoluminescence properties were analyzed for gamma and carbon ion irradiation. The phase purity, morphological properties, vibrational features and thermal stability of the prepared sample were analyzed by X‐Ray diffraction (XRD) and scanning electron microscope (SEM), Fourier transform infrared (FT‐IR) and Thermogravimetric/Differential Thermal Analyzer (TG/DTA) techniques, respectively. The TL properties of the proposed materials shows broad dosimetric bands, peaking at 202 oC for 0.12 kGy gamma irradiation. The highest TL intensity has obtained for 0.7 mol% concentration of Eu ions under Gamma irradiation. Furthermore, the glow curve of the proposed materials shows a broad emission band, centered at 148 °C under carbon ion beam irradiation and exhibits the highest emission intensity for 0.1 mol% Eu concentration. In addition, the dosimetric trapping parameters of the prepared samples such as symmetry factor, order of kinetics, activation energy, frequency factor have been analyzed using various methods such as chen’s peak shape method, initial growth method, Ilich method. The obtained results of the samples show the potential for dosimetric application.

The present study established a glass system with composition of 55B2O3 -30Pb3O4-(15 - x) Al2O3- xMoO3, where x: (0≤x≤5 mol %) by melt quenching conventional method. The structure of the synthesized samples was examined by XRD and FT-IR techniques. It is found that the molybdenum acts as a modifier and enhances the change between BO3 and BO4 structural units. Increasing MoO3 in the sample improved the glass network compactness and enhanced the coherence of the glass network and the structure stiffening. Some physical parameters were studied with increasing MoO3 content in the samples such as Ri, ri, rp, dB-B average coordination number, number of bonds, field strength of (Mo+3), the floppy modes, the cross-linking density and effective coordination number and found to be enhanced. Increasing MoO3 dopingconcentration from 0 – 5 mol % produced corresponding increase in fast neutron effective removal cross section ΣR from 0.07127 – 0.10825 cm-1, total cross section for thermal neutrons σT from 68.35875 – 105.7526 cm-1, and an increment in the cold neutron scattering cross section. Furthermore, the influence of MoO3 doping in the glasses is such that the stopping powers (Sp) and ranges RCSDA /Rp of electrons, proton, alpha particles, and carbon ion follows the trend: (Sp)BPAM-G1 > (Sp)BPAM-G2 > (Sp)BPAM-G3 >(Sp)BPAM-G4 > (Sp)BPAM-G5, and(RCSDA /Rp)BPAM-G1 > (RCSDA /Rp)BPAM-G2 > (RCSDA /Rp)BPAM-G3 > (RCSDA /Rp)BPAM-G4 > ((RCSDA /Rp)BPAM-G5 respectively. On the other hand, the doping produced no noticeable differences in the equivalent atomic number and the exposure buildup factor of the glasses.
