The Raman intensity ratio I/I for: (a) graphite-rich pencil rods irradiated using x-ray doses up to 20 Gy; (b) a restricted view of the I/I response for the same group of media, limited to x-ray doses of no more than 6 Gy; (c1 and c2) an extended group of graphite-rich media irradiated using Co gamma-rays; (d) a restricted view of the I/I response for a restricted group of the media shown in (c), with Co gamma-ray doses limited to no more than 20 Gy; (e) 2B graphite-rich pencil rods irradiated using 6 MeV electrons, and: (f) irradiation of a subset of the media by thermal (0.025 eV) neutrons. The fluctuation of I/I with dose for carbon-rich human hair of nominal diameter 60 μm is indicated by the dashed line in (c) and (d). The values in parentheses indicate the percentage carbon content and the surface area-to-volume ratio of samples. The data are a re-organisation of that included in the studies of Abdul Sani et al. (2020, Bradley et al. (2019, 2021), Mat Nawi et al. (2021a,b), and Lam et al. (2021) such as to illustrate three prime dependencies, viz. surface to volume ratio, carbon content, and linear energy transfer, LET. (g) and (h) are combination graphs as indicated in the key to each.

Thermoluminescence (TL) materials have a broad variety of uses in various fields, such as clinical research, individual dosimetry, and environmental dosimetry, amongst others. However, the use of individual neutron dosimetry has been developing more aggressively lately. In this regard, present study establishes a relationship between the neutron dosage and the optical property changes of graphite-rich materials caused by high doses of neutron radiation.

The penciling part on a paper is colored by the formation of structural color, and the coloring of a paper without ink has been achieved. In a previous study, our group reported that structural color is formed by plasma irradiation (40-120 s) of the surface of a pencil lead or paper painted with a pencil. The formation of structural color due to the thin-layer interference of components of the pencil lead was observed.

Various thicknesses of 2B grade polymer pencil lead graphite (PPLG) were used in the present study, which focussed on the alteration in crystalline lattice and the structural defect caused by the electron irradiation dosage ranging from 0.5 to 20 Gy delivered by an Elekta HD Linac. The fundamental trap parameters i.

Present work builds upon prior investigations concerning the novel use of graphite-rich polymer pencil-lead for passive radiation dosimetry. Working with photon-mediated interactions at levels of dose familiar in radiotherapy, exploratory investigations have now been made using graphite produced commercially in the form of 50 μm thick sheets. Focusing on the relationship between absorbed radiation energy and induced material changes, investigations have been made of thermo- and photoluminescence dose dependence, also of alterations in Raman spectroscopic features.
