Abstract

Abstract Metallic colloid formation in an ionic crystal by radiation was investigated for possible application as a high-level dosemeter. Density of the colloids was measured as optical absorption intensity by photo-acoustic spectroscopy. Several kinds of ionic single crystals were irradiated by intense 20 MeV electron pulses from a linear accelerator. In NaCl crystals, the absorption intensity due to the colloid density has a smooth correlation with the number of irradiating electron pulses, ranging from 2 x 103 to 2 x 105. The colloid formation was confirmed using an electron microscope.
