Preparation of nanocomposite scintillator of ZnS doped with Ag, Cu and AgCu for alpha particle detection
ZnS nanoparticles (NPs) doped with Ag, Cu, and AgCu were synthesized using hydrothermal method in water solution. The NPS are characterized by X-ray diffraction (XRD), energy-dispersive X-ray spectroscopy scanning (EDX), scanning electron microscopy (SEM) and dynamic light scattering (DLS). The produced NPs have approximately hexagonal structure and a cubic zinc blended struc...
متن کاملDevelopment of the Dual Scintillator Sheet and Phoswich Detector for Simultaneous Alpha- and Beta-rays Measurement
Thin sheet type of ZnS(Ag)/plastic dual scintillator for simultaneous counting of alphaand betaparticles using a organic and inorganic scintillator widely used in the radiation measurement was manufactured, which could be applicable in the contamination monitoring systems. Counting materials were manufactured by solidification of the scintillator solution which mixed scintillator, solvent, and ...
متن کاملExposure of school children to alpha particles
Background: A substantial part of the public’s natural radiation dose is due to the inhalation of radon gas. Most of the exposure occurs indoors where the airborne concentration of radon and its decay products is usually higher than outdoors. Materials and Methods: Radon activity concentration has been measured twice in 50 classrooms in 5 levels (10 each) during summer and winter using solid-st...
متن کاملPulse-shape discrimination of scintillation from alpha and beta particles with liquid scintillator and Geiger-mode multipixel avalanche diodes
A successfull application of Geiger-mode multipixel avalanche diodes (GMAPDs) for pulse-shape discrimination in alpha-beta spectrometry using organic liquid scintillator is described in this paper. Efficient discrimination of alpha and beta components in the emission of radioactive isotopes is achieved for alpha energies above 0.3 MeV. The ultra-compact design of the scintillating detector help...
متن کاملPreliminary study on the properties of zinc oxide (ZnO) for alpha particles detection
Background: : Due to the difficulties of locally obtaining ZnS(Ag), preliminary investigation of the radioluminescence characterization of Zinc oxide (ZnO) for alpha particle detection was performed. Materials and Methods: The scintillation properties of ZnO films were tested using alpha sources  ...
