Tóm tắt

Bài báo này tập trung vào việc kiểm tra các đặc tính chắn bức xạ của bảy loại kính boro-tellurite có dạng TeO2–B2O3–SrCl2–LiF–Bi2O3. Các đặc tính chắn bức xạ gamma và neutron của các loại kính này đã được thử nghiệm dựa trên hệ số suy giảm khối lượng (μ/ρ), độ dày nửa giá trị (HVL), độ dài tự do trung bình (MFP), số nguyên tố hiệu quả (Zeff) và diện tích cắt ngang loại bỏ (∑R). Các giá trị μ/ρ của các loại kính hiện tại được mô phỏng bằng các mô phỏng Monte Carlo Geant4 trong phạm vi năng lượng mở rộng từ 0,015 đến 20 MeV và sau đó dữ liệu được tạo ra được xác minh bằng cách sử dụng các giá trị được tính toán từ phần mềm WinXCOM. Thêm vào đó, phương pháp tiến trình hình học (G–P) đã được sử dụng để ước tính hệ số tích lũy bức xạ gamma (EBF) cho các loại kính đã chuẩn bị. Đáng lưu ý rằng các giá trị μ/ρ và Zeff tăng lên, trong khi các giá trị MFP và HVL giảm xuống khi hàm lượng TeO2 tăng trong mẫu kính. Các giá trị EBF sẽ hữu ích cho việc thiết kế hoặc phát triển các loại kính hiện tại cho các ứng dụng chắn bức xạ gamma. Kết quả cho thấy các loại kính hiện tại có khả năng chắn bức xạ gamma tốt so với một số vật liệu chắn bức xạ thương mại.
