Silver (Ag+) doped phosphate glass after exposure to ionizing radiation has an intense luminescence by stimulating with ultra-violet light.This phenomenon is called radiophotoluminescence (RPL).The RPL intensity was increased linearly with increasing X-ray irradiation Cart Accessories dose up to about 1000 Gy.

Small amount of bead-type RPL glass as large as about 0.05mm was well prepared with a jet flame system.It was confirmed that the RPL glass beads could be used as passive-type radiation dosimeters.

Visualization and monitoring system of radiation dose distribution utilizing RPL phenomenon in the Ag+-doped phosphate glass are developed in this study.In the presentation, the basic luminescence properties are reported as well as the application of Ag+-doped phosphate glass Cashews beads to radiation dose distribution monitoring.
