X-ray diffraction analysis of KY3F10 nanoparticles doped with Nd and preliminary studies for its use in high-dose radiation dosimetry. <b>Brazilian Journal of Radiation Sciences</b>, v. 7, n. 2A, p. 1-13, 2019.

Rietveld refinement was applied to obtain cell parameters, atomic positions and atomic dis-placement factors to be compared with the ones found in literature. X-ray line profile methods were applied to determine mean crystallite size and crystallite size distribution. Thermoluminescent (TL) emission curves were measured for different radiation doses, from 0.10 kGy up to 10.0 kGy. Dose-response curves were obtained by area integration beneath the peaks from TL. The reproducibility of the results in this work has shown that this material can be considered a good dosimetric material.1-13openAccessnanoparticlesx-ray diffractionradiation dosesdoped materialsthermoluminescenceneodymiumyttrium fluoridescritical sizedose-response relationshipsdosimetryArtigo de periódico2A710.15392/bjrs.v7i2A.5860000-0001-7707-7821https://orcid.org/0000-0001-7707-7821Sem Percentil
