Diffused transmission of laser beam and image processing tools for alpha-particle track-etch dosimetry in PM-355 SSNTDs

摘要

The present study introduces an optical as well as image processing method that is effective in the study of PM-355 solid state nuclear track detector (SSNTDs) irradiated with a-particles at different times. Laser light with Gaussian extent and 635 nm wavelength is used to accomplish this goal. An imaging processing technique is utilized for the study of the nature and characteristics of a transmitted laser beam through PM-355 SSNTDs. Semi-empirical formulas are obtained which can be used as guide lines to calculate unknown dose. The present method is effective and simple and demands no sophisticated tool methods.
