With the recently acquired knowledge of the use of a multiphase mixture of precursors under electron beam irradiation (EBI), new possibilities were opened for this technique. In the present work, we obtained quantum dots, nanocrystals, nanoparticles,...

The development of quantum-enhanced technologies requires single-photon sources, as well as methods for their characterization and verification. Here, we describe a methodology for measuring the correlation function of a single-photon source using an...

Very-high-energy electron (VHEE) beams, ranging from 50 to 300 or 400 MeV, are the subject of intense research investigation, with considerable interest concerning applications in radiation therapy due to their accurate energy deposition into large a...

Shape memory alloy (SMA) materials are valued for their shape memory effect, superelasticity, and biocompatibility, making them an ideal choice for applications in biomedical, aerospace, and actuator fields. Nickel–titanium (NiTi) SMA is a prom...

This work is focused on an accurate experimental determination of the thermal 33S(n,α)30Si cross-section. This cross-section is a critical parameter for the potential use of 33S as a cooperative target in boron neutron capture therapy or to und...

Optimizing thermoelectric (TE) performance in two-dimensional materials has emerged as a pivotal strategy for sustainable energy conversion. This study systematically investigates the regulatory mechanisms of uniaxial strain (−2% to +2%), tempe...

Modelling of linear accelerators using the Monte Carlo method is critical for precise radiotherapy planning. In addition, detailed and accurate dose estimation to the organ at risk can be assessed and optimized. In this study, EGSnrc Monte Carlo code...

For the first time, a mixture of PbTe and Pb- and Te-oxides coated with carbon, under electron beam irradiation (EBI), was transformed into quantum dots, nanocrystals, nanoparticles and grains of PbTe with a sintered appearance. A small portion of no...

We developed a novel dosimetric method using DNA molecules as a radiation sensor. The amount of neutron or gamma rays irradiated DNA damage was determined by evaluating the amount of DNA serving as a template for qPCR. The absorbed doses in the sampl...

In recent years, ultrafast bursts with high power have been applied in many significant fields. However, the peak power of the pulse train generated by fiber lasers is limited by fiber characteristics from nonlinear effects, which can only be at the...
