Description

Infrared (IR) and X-ray fluorescence analyses of samples of quartz crystal were performed under various annealing conditions in the range 25-700 C for 1 h and gamma exposure doses from 100 to 107 Gy. The results show composition changes with change of the sample annealing temperature as well as gamma irradiation doses beyond 105 Gy. Data for IR and X-ray fluorescence analyses are also compared with those for gamma-induced response changes of thermoluminescence and electric conductivity of the quartz crystals. (orig.)
