A completely optical, non-destructive imaging of tracks in a fluorescent crystal provides a new way to detect and to assess doses from heavy charged particles and neutrons. The technique combines confocal fluorescent microscopy with a new radiation-sensitive, luminescent material based on aluminium oxide single crysta…

In this work a successful method for producing high-aspect-ratio nanopatterned single-crystal TiO 2 is presented. The method used is based on nanolithography involving swift heavy ion bombardment through a porous anodic alumina mask. Nanopatterning of large areas allows for fabrication of new devices, for example, pho…

Using a ${\mathrm{SrTiO}}_{3}(001)$ barrier and ${\mathrm{La}}_{0.7}{\mathrm{Sr}}_{0.3}{\mathrm{MnO}}_{3}(001)$ electrodes, we study the case of coherent spin-polarized tunneling of electrons that exhibit a symmetry mismatch with respect to the lower electron barrier height. Due to this mismatch, electrons with energy…

A real-time optically stimulated luminescence (OSL) dosimetry system for potential in vivo use during radiotherapy treatments is proposed. Single-crystal europium-doped KBr samples were grown in a Bridgman furnace, and characterised using optical absorption techniques. An algorithm for the processing of the OSL signal…

Simultaneous interaction of low-energy ions and atomic hydrogen—a process named chemical sputtering—causes erosion of C:H surfaces which is significantly higher than the sum of the individual processes—chemical erosion due to atomic hydrogen alone and physical sputtering due to ions. Above that, this process occurs al…

Single crystals of l -threonine have been grown from aqueous solutions of different pH values. The crystal grown from the solution of isoelectric pH (PI) was found to have the best linear and nonlinear optical properties. The optical quality of l -threonine was improved greatly in the case of the crystal grown at PI.…

The characteristics of thermoluminescence (TL) and optical stimulated luminescence (OSL) in undoped alpha-Al2O3 single crystals were studied. The TL glow curves of the crystal samples irradiated at various dose levels were measured by RisØ TL/OSL-DA-15B/C reader with U-340 or 7-59 filters at different heating rates. T…

Aluminate glasses are difficult to prepare as they do not contain traditional network formers, but they are promising materials for optical applications. The atomic structure of calcium aluminate glasses has been studied using several experimental techniques. The current study uses molecular dynamics to obtain a model…
