Abstract

In 1981 Kronenberg, McLaughlin, and Siebentritt proposed measurement of radiation dosage using optical waveguides with leuco dye solutions. Based on this work, an opti-chromic system was proposed at the Fourth International Meeting on Radiation Processing. This opti-chromic system has been evaluated by McLaughlin and Radak. The opti-chromic waveguide system may be even more valuable for other applications which involve measurements with special requirements and configurations.

The linearity of the radiation response can be enhanced by proper selection of leuco dye concentration, waveguide materials, organic activator solvents, and trace chemical additives. This paper presents experimental data resulting from an examination of the organic solvents TEP, DMSO, and n-propyl alcohol in relationship to stability, temperature characteristics, and radiation chemistry.

The experimental data indicates that by varying the types and combinations of organic solvents, special opti-chromic waveguides can be fabricated to measure various radiation ranges under a variety of temperature ranges which have stability over time.

特殊光色波导的剂量响应特性

1981年，Kronenberg、McLaughlin和Siebentritt提出了用光波导测量辐射剂量的方法，其中光波导含有无色染料溶液。在此基础上，在第四届国际辐射处理会议上提出了一种光致变色系统。McLaughlin和Radak对该光致变色系统进行了评价。对于其他涉及特殊要求和配置的测量的应用，光-色波导系统可能更有价值。通过适当选择染料浓度、波导材料、有机激发剂溶剂和微量化学添加剂，可以提高辐射响应的线性度。本文介绍了从有机溶剂TEP, DMSO和正丙醇的稳定性，温度特性和辐射化学关系的检查的实验数据。实验数据表明，通过改变有机溶剂的种类和组合，可以制备出在不同温度范围内测量不同辐射范围的特殊光色波导，且随时间的推移具有稳定性。
