This research aimed to fabricate a potential radiation dosimeter using electrospun ZnO/WO/PVA-coated glass nanocomposites. Samples with varying ZnO molarities (2.46, 3.69, 4.91, 5, and 7 M) and 5 wt% of WO collected at different times were examined. Field emission scanning electron microscopy (FESEM) and energy dispersive X-ray analysis (EDX) revealed favorable nanofiber morphology, although certain conditions produced larger nanofibers. The optical properties, analyzed via ultraviolet–visible (UV–Vis) spectroscopy, exhibited varying responses in different samples with changes in nanofiber collection time. The calculated optical energy band gap () for all samples is lower than of pure ZnO. Moreover, the effective atomic number (), calculated based on EDX results, did not approach of human tissues, in all samples in general. Crucially, all samples demonstrated a strong linear response and low energy dependence when subjected to different X-ray exposure settings, closely resembling an AlO-based OSL dosimeter. Sample E3, consisting of 7.00 M ZnO and 5 wt% of WO collected over 4 h, emerged as the most promising candidate for a radiation dosimeter. Prior studies neglected to examine the influence of different amounts of ZnO on the radiation dosimetry properties of ZnO/WO/PVA nanofibers. In contrast, this study specifically investigated the radiation dosimetry properties of ZnO/WO/PVA nanofibers. The exceptional properties of ZnO in response to X-rays, combined with the desired X-ray attenuation capabilities of WO, make them a distinct option as substitute materials in radiation dosimeters. This research paves the way for an alternative dosimeter solution with robust radiation detection capabilities.

电纺 ZnO/WO3/PVA 涂层玻璃纳米复合材料潜在辐射剂量测定应用的实验评估

本研究旨在使用静电纺丝 ZnO/WO/PVA 涂层玻璃纳米复合材料制造潜在辐射剂量计。对不同时间收集的具有不同 ZnO 摩尔浓度（2.46、3.69、4.91、5 和 7 M）和 5 wt% WO 的样品进行了检查。场发射扫描电子显微镜 (FESEM) 和能量色散 X 射线分析 (EDX) 显示出有利的纳米纤维形态，尽管某些条件会产生更大的纳米纤维。通过紫外可见（UV-Vis）光谱分析，不同样品的光学特性随着纳米纤维收集时间的变化而表现出不同的响应。所有样品的计算光学能带隙 () 均低于纯 ZnO。此外，在所有样品中，根据 EDX 结果计算的有效原子序数 () 并不接近人体组织。至关重要的是，当经历不同的 X 射线曝光设置时，所有样品都表现出很强的线性响应和低能量依赖性，与基于 Al2O3 的 OSL 剂量计非常相似。样品 E3 由 4 小时内收集的 7.00 M ZnO 和 5 wt% WO 组成，成为最有希望的辐射剂量计候选材料。先前的研究忽略了不同含量的ZnO对ZnO/WO/PVA纳米纤维辐射剂量测定性能的影响。相比之下，本研究专门研究了 ZnO/WO/PVA 纳米纤维的辐射剂量测定特性。 ZnO 对 X 射线响应的卓越性能，与 WO 所需的 X 射线衰减能力相结合，使其成为辐射剂量计中替代材料的独特选择。这项研究为具有强大辐射检测功能的替代剂量计解决方案铺平了道路。
