摘要
A set of Ce3+ activated silicate- and phosphate-based scintillating glasses were submitted to irradiation in the Co-60 radioisotope source "Calliope" (ENEA-Casaccia in Rome, Italy) in the dose range between 1 and 250 Gy (3.7 Gy/h). The effect of ionising radiation was probed by transmission measurements performed before and after each irradiation on all analysed samples. From these data, the radiation-induced absorption coefficient was calculated, proportional to the density of colour centres induced by irradiation in the solid matrix. Results are discussed by taking into account the possible dependence of radiation hardness on the composition of glass matrix. (C) 2002 Elsevier Science Ltd. All rights reserved.
